Subiaco is the gateway to the Monti Simbruini regional park, one of the great regional parks of Lazio: limestone mountains with beech woods, karst plateaus and springs. Above the village is Monte Livata, the mountain resort of the Romans.

The outings

Vivere l'Aniene, the activity centre in Subiaco, organises guided excursions almost every weekend. Each route has its difficulty grade in the technical sheet, and most are suitable for everyone. The meeting point is usually their base in Subiaco, or the park's Visitor Centre at Monte Livata when the route starts higher up. In November 2026 their calendar includes, for example, the route through the Fondi di Jenne and Colle Campitellino among autumn beech woods and that of the Camposecco plateau. From €13 per person.

Dogs

On many routes they are admitted, except in protected areas where they are prohibited; the centre tells you when you book, and its guides also organise outings designed for going with a dog.

Tips

  • Check the calendar on the website The routes change every week with the season.
  • Mountain clothing Up there it is quite a lot colder than in Rome.
