The Circeo National Park has a wide variety of landscapes and incredibly beautiful views.

Established in 1934, the Circeo National Park is an incredible mosaic of nature and history just an hour's drive south of Rome. The park stretches between land and sea. Despite its relatively small size (9,000 hectares), it includes landscapes of great variety and views of incredible beauty. There are five environments: the promontory of Mount Circeo, whose profile is reminiscent of the magician Circe who, according to myth, enchanted Ulysses; 27 kilometres of beaches and white sand dunes; four coastal lakes; over 3,000 hectares of forest; and the small island of Zannone, a bird sanctuary.
In addition to its natural beauty, the Circeo Park is of historical interest. The discovery of a 60,000-year-old skull of a Neanderthal man in a cave along the coast is evidence of a human presence in the area since prehistoric times. The remains of a Roman villa, attributed to the emperor Domitian, also leave visitors in awe. The great diversity of environments is matched by a particularly rich fauna and flora, including large forests of holm oak, ideal habitat for wild boar, fallow deer and hares. Birds and reptiles abound. Although the area was threatened by property speculation from the 1940s to the 1960s, by the 1980s the park had regained its original appearance. In season, there are many activities, from hiking to visiting the most beautiful sites.
