Rocca di Papa

Pratoni del Vivaro

At the foot of Rocca di Papa, the Valley of Vivaro appearsas a large extension of meadows, delimited on the southeast by Monte Artemisio and by Maschio delle Faete and Monte Cavo on the north.

The large stretch of land, partially administrated by Rocca di Papa and partially by Velletri, is a well known outdoor spot where you can relax, have a picnic or go cyclingor horseback riding.

The Federal Centre of Horse Riding occupies much of the area where horsewomen and horsemen train along these horse trails. Near the “Pratoni” there is a small community by the name of Vivaro, with approx. 300 inhabitants, where you can find the Astronomical Observatoryย Franco Fuligni.
