Bosco Faggeta di Monte Raschio, Oriolo Romano

Lazio

Beech woodland normally needs altitude, but Monte Raschio's cool volcanic soil and microclimate let a beech forest thrive at barely 500 m — one of the lowest in Italy. A marked path loops through the old trees, cool and shaded even in high summer.
