Colli sul Velino is in the territory of Rieti which offers an extraordinary experience of pure and wild nature that you can see while following along the roads and paths from solitary peaks to fresh valleys, from gentle hills furrowed with olive trees and secular woods. The intense greens of the slopes and the golden colors of the wheat are broken up between thousands of courses of pure water. As many as eleven lakes dot the territory. Passing through the Holy Valley is the Velino River, which, before giving origin to the Marmore Waterfalls, flows through a territory studded with environmental pearls: the gorges, the San Vittorino plain, (a generous custodian of water), and the humid areas of the Reserve Park of the Lungo and Ripasottile Lakes.
