Starting and ending in the quaint village of Villa San Giovanni in Tuscia, we navigated through ancient passageways, soaked in the view from medieval hilltop towns, and discovered ruins that whispered tales of a time long gone.Now, imagine us trudging through wet, muddy terrain, taking unexpected detours, and even experiencing a heart-stopping encounter with a wild boar. We promise you'll feel the adrenaline rush as we talk about our hike along the stunning Biedano River, our exploration of ancient Etruscan tombs, and our walk amidst verdant vegetation that seemed to come alive with every step. This wasn't just a walk; it was an immersive, emotional journey that gave us a taste of a slow, enriching life, just a few kilometers from the hustle and bustle of Rome.
