Overview

Experience a unique hike on the legendary Appian Way, known as “The Queen of Roads.” This 5-hour journey, led by an expert guide, offers a blend of history and nature as you trek the same path once travelled by ancient Romans. Starting from S. Maria delle Mole, easily accessible from Termini Station, you'll hike approximately 17 kilometres to Circus Maximus, passing through stunning Roman countryside, ancient villas, and historical landmarks.

This challenging hike requires good fitness and is ideal for those who appreciate nature, history, and an authentic Roman experience. The hike is mostly on the original Appian Way, with 90% dedicated to hiking and 10% to exploring points of interest.

Meet 15 minutes before departure. Please bring hiking boots, 1.5 litres of water, and suitable outdoor attire. Optional items include hiking poles and snacks. Note: Transport, food, and entrance fees are not included.
