A loop in the Monti Simbruini Park, an hour from Rome: high-altitude grasslands, beech woods, the springs of the Aniene and ancient Benedictine monasteries. A green, silent mountain range, very close to the capital yet far from the crowds, where you walk across plateaus that feel like another world.

Trekking in the Monti Lucretili Park, in the Sabina: olive groves, medieval villages and the remains of the poet Horace's villa at Licenza. A regional park a stone's throw from Rome yet almost unknown, where you walk in silence among centuries-old olive trees, oaks and ancient Roman memories.

In the heart of the Tuscia around Viterbo, Lake Vico is the most intact volcanic basin in Lazio, protected by a nature reserve and ringed by beech and chestnut woods. Far from the more touristy lakes, it offers silence, shady trails and clean waters not far from Rome.

The Valle di Comino, in the southern Ciociaria, is the Lazio side of the Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park: an agricultural basin of medieval villages, abbeys and beech woods that almost nobody knows. Here tourism gathers elsewhere, and the trails and villages remain lived-in and silent.

The Monti Aurunci, in southern Lazio between Latina and Frosinone, form a little-known nature park where limestone peaks look out over the Tyrrhenian Sea. Amid Mediterranean scrub, blooms of wild orchids and villages of stone, this is an authentic, almost deserted Mediterranean mountain, far from the crowded coastline.

The Cammino Naturale dei Parchi links Rome to L'Aquila, crossing seven protected areas on foot through the Sabina, the Cicolano and the Gran Sasso. A recent and still little-known green route, it avoids busy roads and passes through villages, valleys and mountains far from the main tourist flows.

Italy's Trans-Siberian is a scenic railway that climbs to almost Alpine altitudes between Sulmona, the Altopiani Maggiori and Roccaraso, in Abruzzo. Saved from closure and travelled by heritage trains, it crosses high plateaus and Apennine villages in a slow, spectacular journey far from the more beaten tourist destinations.

Campo Imperatore, in the Gran Sasso Park in Abruzzo, is a high-altitude plateau nicknamed the little Tibet: endless prairies at around 1,800 metres, wild horses and isolated shelters. A landscape of absolute solitude that remains little visited by more beaten mountain tourism.

The Cammino di San Tommaso crosses Abruzzo from the slopes of the Maiella to the apostle's tomb in Ortona, on the Adriatic. Among hermitages, drovers' tracks and hills, it is a still little-trodden pilgrimage, a silent, wholly Italian alternative to the more crowded great routes of faith.
