In the heart of the Mediterranean region there is a special world, where bears and eagles live still free among the remains of a distant past.
It is a true treasure-trove of biodiversity that, from the Alps to the beautiful islands facing Africa, is home of riches of inestimable value, thousands of species of plants and animals, including the continent’s largest predators.
This is Italy: here, a wild heart still beats side by side to art and history.
