Our region is the green heart of Italy: we have 102 protected natural sites under the Natura 2000 network, the network of areas designated for the conservation of biodiversity in the European Union established by Article 3 of Directive 92/43/EEC of the Council of May 12, 1992, which protects natural habitats, as well as wild flora and fauna. In addition, there are 7 regional parks and 1 national park. Over 16% of the regional territory, covering a total area of about 140,000 hectares, is included in protected community and national areas. Discover them with us!
