ENTE RomaNatura - FRANCIGENA

The Lazio Region has identified the location of the Francigena route a priority to enhance and promote integrated land. This aim is in perfect harmony with the purposes of the Regional RomaNatura that has among its main tasks the institutional promotion of the natural heritage, structures and the development of sustainable activities within the areas under its control and welcomed in this positively sense the project of enhancing cultural, tourism and environmental Via Francigena recognized by the Council of Europe and supported by the regional jurisdiction.
Considering that the final stretch of the Via Francigena before arriving at the Basilica of St. Peter, affects some areas managed by our organization, or Nature Reserves dell'Insugherata and Monte Mario, hopefully a growing movement of pilgrims within these areas.
The route runs on almost any area of the green area of great scenic beauty with the opportunity to observe some artifacts of historical value such as villa attributed to the emperor Lucius Verus, the tomb of M.Vibo Mariano, better known as the Tomb of Nero and an ancient fountain (for renovation) exit on Conti Street.
Within the scope of their national and regional project for the development of the Via Francigena, RomaNatura has set specific targets listed below:

 To provide access routes for the areas affected by the related Entity RomaNatura of the Via Francigena, Insugherata and Monte Mario park’s.
 To enhance existing features of particular importance from the point of view of natural and cultural history. Both reserves preserve vast areas of woodland within the city, very close to the city center, a feature almost unique among the major European cities.
 Ensuring a safe and accessible location for pilgrims and tourists who choose to walk to the capital
 Promote a type of tourism already in sustainable power that enhances even the agri-food and activities related to accommodation and dining routes
