Destination

The Just Explorers team awaits you in the Monti Sibillini National Park for a unique experience to discover the local fauna, with a focus on the Apennine Chamois, protagonist of the Life 2002 project. During the mating season, these chamois are particularly active, offering unforgettable shows. The park, between Umbria and Marche, is a jewel of biodiversity, with fauna that has recolonized areas after the earthquakes, moving freely even near urban areas.

The Sibillini Mountains National Park, between Umbria and Marche, covers 71,437 hectares of mountainous terrain with rocky sections. It is home to a rich avifauna of over 150 species of birds, including the golden eagle, and a variety of mammals such as deer, roe deer, wild boars, foxes, chamois, wolves and the wild cat. After the earthquakes, many abandoned rural areas were regenerated by nature, creating breathtaking landscapes. Events like ours aim to support the rebirth of local communities that keep the connection with this extraordinary land alive.

Details of the tour

The daily photo sessions ti offrono la flessibilità di programmare una o più uscite in base al tuo tempo libero. Il 25 novembre, potrai scegliere tra una sessione all’alba o al tramonto per vivere questa esperienza unica.

During the sessions, you will be accompanied by a professional photographer, an expert in the park and its fauna, who will guide you to ensure a complete and engaging experience.

Le sessioni si svolgeranno all’alba (dalle 6:30 alle 10:00 circa) e al tramonto (dalle 13:30 alle 18:00 circa). Per garantire la massima qualità e attenzione, ogni attività è limitata a un massimo di 4/8 partecipanti.

Additionally, if necessary, it is possible to stay overnight at an affiliated facility on site, upon reservation.

Session Details:

Saranno disponibili 2 sessioni, una all’alba una al tramonto.

Sunrise Session: 6.30am to 10.00am

Sunset Session: 1.30pm to 6.00pm  

The times may then vary depending on the activity, the location used or other factors that may affect the activity of these animals. The organization will then communicate together with the meeting point also the precise details on the start time and a forecast for the return from the session.

Costs:

The price for each single photo session is €100.

A single session means a Sunrise session or a Sunset session. For the full day, you will therefore need to book two sessions.

Once booked you will be contacted to communicate the date on which you would like to participate in your session(s).
