Via delle Sorgenti, Montorio Romano

The Sabine hills are the immediate landscape here, with low limestone ridges, wooded slopes and olive-growing country. The area lies close to the middle course of the Tiber basin and within about 15 km the most important natural feature is the Monti Lucretili Regional Natural Park, which covers the higher ground around Orvinio, Licenza and Percile. The nearest substantial town is Tivoli, which has major services and the Villa d'Este and Hadrian's Villa UNESCO sites, but it is outside the 15 km landscape radius. This part of the Sabina is known for olive oil and small hill villages.
