Foresta di Pietralunga, Alto Tevere
Umbria
The forests of the Alto Tevere above Città di Castello are the wildest in Umbria — ancient sessile oak and hornbeam woodland rarely visited. Wolf confirmed. Wildcat (Felis silvestris) recorded on camera trap 2021. Porcupine abundant. Roe deer and wild boar everywhere. The Tevere (Tiber) source is 30 km north on Monte Fumaiolo — this stretch runs through intact forest. Dogs off-leash.
