Spring in the #Lucretili mountains, #parchilazio, today. #cyclamen
The real highlight of the day, however, was the #Apennines endemism Crocus suaveloens, in flower by the hundreds (or more than that...). #Lucretili #parchilazio
In the #Lucretili mountains, #parchilazio, last Friday (26th January). Definitely not a snowy winter so far... actually toward midday temperature was pretty Spring like already.
A cool and misty 24th December in the #Lucretili mountains, searching for the endemic Crocus suaveolens but no luck... I'll have to come back next month #parchilazio

Two different hikes this weekend brought us closer to water: around Poggio Mirteto, a bird watchers paradise, we explored the unspoiled version of the Tiber (the best: you can get there by train!) – and on Sunday we visited Percile to enjoy the Karst Lake, which almost had a Norwegian feel to it – both hikes are less than an hour outside of Rome. Lazio is a hiker's paradise and only few people know it 😎
