And you, what beast do you feel like? !
In the Maiella Park you can find wolves, bears, deer and other fascinating animals: just hop in a vintage jeep and follow a guide to the most strategic observation points in the area! Thanks to professional equipment, you will be able to spot wildlife that would go unnoticed by the naked eye. And between one sighting and another you will enjoy a delicious typical aperitif!
What are you waiting for? Immerse yourself in nature and observe its wonder!
What we will do
The appointment is at the indicated time at the meeting point in Campo di Giove (AQ) , where your guide will be waiting to take you on this exclusive experience in a vintage off-road vehicle.
After a brief introduction on the Maiella Park, you will climb aboard the jeep and move along a route of about 13 km to reach the most favourable areas for wildlife spotting. During the first phase of the excursion you will remain on a stakeout until dark: the park will come alive and you will be able to try to spot some animals thanks to the optical equipment provided (included) .
At the end of this first moment, you will walk to a nearby structure, where you will be offered an aperitif (included) based on typical Abruzzi products such as focaccia, cold cuts and cheese accompanied by wine or soft drinks. A perfect moment to recharge your batteries and share the emotions experienced during the first part of the activity.
You will then resume the excursion with the second phase of night observation, using sophisticated thermal and optical equipment to try to spot the park's most elusive fauna. If you are lucky you may see wolves, bears, deer, wild boar, foxes and nocturnal birds of prey!
Finally, you will return to the starting point by jeep.
The activity will last about 4 hours in total.
