Sabina, a land rich with beauty and resources, is blessed with many points of artistic and cultural interest. Every corner of this area majestically speaks of a rich history and everywhere one can find traces of the ancient past.

The territory of Sabina is indeed inextricably linked to the history of Rome. Consider Rea Silvia, mother of Romulus and Remus the brothers who, according to legend, have founded the eternal city. She was a Sabine from Rieti, the capital of Sabina. Or the well remembered episode of the Rape of the Sabine Women, or the famous saying from the 3rd century BC “The Romans knew wealth for the first time when they subdued the people of Sabina.”

Because of its historic narrative and its unique physical characteristics, Sabina has always been desirable as a destination for fans of antiquity and lovers of nature. Thus, the agriturismo Montepiano has created some special itineraries for walking enthusiasts who prefer routes off the beaten path.
