Welcome to Sabaudia Holiday
A new and fascinating town, Sabaudia is encircled by unaffected natural attractions, breathtaking views and numerous green areas, from which the term “garden town” derives. Being situated in the heart of the Circeo National Park, Sabaudia is a peculiar and singular example of a successful cohabitation of nature and built landscape. By crossing Giovanni XXIII bridge, over Lake Paola, you find yourself on the most characteristic and fragile ambience of the Park: the coastal dunes, 23 km in length and exceptionally rich in vegetation. Along the dunes, there are four lakes: Sabaudia (or Paola), Caprolace, Monaci and Fogliano. A rich and varied avifauna that frequents them during the migration periods; ducks, fulcia atra, herons, egretta garzetta, flamingos, white storkes, himanotopous and avocets characterize them. With an extension of about 3.300 hectares, the forest dominates the core of the Pontine Plain. Oaks, quercus frainetto, quercus robur and turkey oaks create a unique example of cohabitation of hygrophilous and mesophyte species; as for the fauna, there are wild boars, badgers, foxes, hedgehogs, weasels, deer and hares. Finally, Mount Circeo dominates the landscapes with its characteristic profile that assumes the features of the enchantress Circe, thus lending mystery to the Pontine Region. Is one of the most exclusive Italian coastlines. Just 90 Km South of Rome and right half way from Naples and Rome Itself, it is the ideal place for a summer Italian holiday.
The Circeo National Park
The Circeo National Park is located along the Thyrrenian shores of Southern Lazio, at about 100 km south of Rome on the coastal stretch between Anzio and Terracina and is entirely enclosed in the province of Latina ( in the precincts of the municipalities of Latina, Sabaudia, San Felice Circeo and Ponza ) at a total of about 8500 hectares. Instituted in 1934, the Circeo National Park was born in order to preserve not just a single species but also a rich whole of biomes with a consequent extreme abundance of species. It is because of its institution, which took place precisely when the entire Pontine Region was submitted to a radical operation of integral land drainage and creation of farms, that the complete clearing of the ancient and inhospitable “Selva di Terracina” was avoided: the small proportion saved from cutting came to create, together with the Lake of Sabaudia, the coastal dunes and the promontory of Circeo, the first configuration of the Park. Various proceedings followed, and the Circeo Park has gradually altered the quantity ( with the variation of its boundaries ) and the quality ( with the institution of Natural Reserves and international recognition’s for its enormous natural importance ) of its territory. Entrance to the Park is free: visitors, though, have to comply with the norms of The Park instituting laws and regulations and, also, with regional acts on particular subjects such as off road driving, the protection of minor faunal species, the collection of mushrooms and other produce of the forest, and so forth. Sanctions for contravening these norms are of both administrative and penal nature. Various structures are available to visitors. Park are easily accessible with numerous public roads and routes that cross farming land, footpaths, gravelled cycling and walking signposted paths, some of which present illustrated signboards and equipped access. The park is also extremely accessible to disabled people.
