This nature reserve lies three hours by car from Rome and 20 km south of Ancona, commonly referred to as the city where the sun rises and falls over the ocean. Established in 1987, this vast reserve is dedicated to the protection of flora and fauna, becoming a sanctuary of untouched nature.
Ancient ruins lay hidden within the lush green forests and along the reserve’s 20 km of shoreline. Bordering the east side of park, coastal cliffs provide a panoramic view of the white, pebbly beaches below that look out over the Mediterranean Sea and Portonovo Bay.
