Neviano Degli Arduini: Nature, Hiking Trails and Culture

Neviano Degli Arduini offers several distinct travel highlights: nature and wildlife at Monte Fuso, marked CAI hiking trails, and historical and cultural attractions. The town is a starting point for excursions to the wildlife area of Parco del Monte Fuso and to Pieve di Santa Maria di Sasso. Neviano Degli Arduini is also on the Strada del Prosciutto.

Nature and wildlife at Monte Fuso

The Centro Faunistico Monte Fuso covers 45 hectares. Seventy-five percent of the area consists of mixed deciduous forests, while 25 percent is permanent, species-rich grassland. This is a ratio of three parts forest to one part grassland; the smaller share is also a permanent part of the site. More than 100 hoofed animals live semi-freely in the wildlife enclosure, including red deer, fallow deer and mouflons.

For planning purposes, you can consider these details as two distinct nature themes: the proportions describe the landscape, while the wildlife enclosure is home to the hoofed animals. This lets you decide whether you are more interested in the forest and grassland or in the animal species mentioned.

Hiking and other activities

The Monte Fuso area has a network of CAI hiking trails, marked along the route with white-and-red blazes. Parco Avventura Monte Fuso offers four high ropes courses for adults and two for children aged four and over. The courses were inaugurated in 2022. This gives you a choice between hiking and high ropes courses as different types of activity; the courses are also divided by the age groups specified.

Ten e-bikes are available to rent from the Info Point at Centro Faunistico Monte Fuso for the 2026 season. If you are planning for a later season, check availability in advance. This gives you three distinct activity options for your stay: the CAI trail network, the high ropes courses and the seasonal e-bike rental.

Historical and cultural attractions

Neviano Degli Arduini is a starting point for excursions to Pieve di Santa Maria di Sasso. Pieve di Santa Maria Assunta di Sasso was first documented in 1005. This date provides a precise historical reference for travelers who would also like to include history in their plans.

Casa Museo Colibri displays works by Bruno Bricoli, dedicated to the stories and people of the area, and offers a journey through the rural culture of the past. While the Pieve’s early documentary mention provides a historical date, Casa Museo focuses on people, local stories and rural culture. These are different ways to explore historical themes.
