Subjects : The Valtiberina is the valley crossed by the upper reaches of the Tiber River, it is closed to the west by the Alpe di Catenaia and to the east by the Alpe of Luna.Il its capital is Sansepolcro founded in the 10th century and a country of absolute historical and artistic interest that gave birth, among others, to the great Piero della Francesca, and which still preserves some of his most famous and important works. The photographic cues offered by Valtiberina are manifold, Get lost in the alleys of the beautiful Anghiari (one of the most beautiful villages in Italy), immerse yourself in the history of Art in Sansepolcro, enjoy the peace and silence of the Hermitage of Montecasale, excursions immersed in the green of the Apennine ridge or quieter walks along the Tiber River.Being a very diverse territory, Valtiberina offers numerous species of plants and animals very different from each other. At the bottom of the valley, along the banks of the Tiber River, there is typical river vegetation and it is not difficult to meet the Martin Pescatore, the Heron, the wild goose and numerous species of sparrows. In the mountainous areas, on the other hand, you can find the Hawk, the Poiana, and above the Ripa of the Moon, also the Golden Eagle! Frequent are encounters with Boars, Daini, Foxes, Hares, and more and more often with the Apennine Wolf.Recently some specimens of Deer have also been sighted and photographed.

Recommended equipment : Given the diversity of the subjects, a rather large set would be needed, ranging from wide-angle landscapes stretching from the valley floor to the peaks of the Apennine ridge, to fixed targets to capture the views of the countries, to the long telephoto lenses for photographic hunting within the protected areas.

Best months : Being a very diverse natural habitat, it is always the best time to visit these places, foliage in autumn, snow and galaverna in winter, historical/cultural events in summer.

How to get there : Valtiberina can be reached via the E45 Orte - Ravenna road that cuts the valley lengthwise, or via a short section of the E78 road that connects Sansepolcro to Arezzo via Le Ville di Monterchi and Palazzo del Pero.

Visits : Entry to the Nature Reserves is free
