Partenio Regional Park

Partenio Regional Park is a protected area in Campania that covers mountain forests, grassy slopes, and rocky hillsides with a mix of natural habitats. The landscape features steep wooded valleys, open meadows, and rocky outcrops where you can see different plants and wildlife depending on the elevation.

The park was established in 1993 as part of Italy's effort to protect natural areas in the Campania region. This designation helped safeguard the mountain landscape and the plant and animal species that depend on it.

The park maintains strong connections with surrounding communities through educational programs and local events that highlight the relationship between nature and regional traditions.

The park has marked trails of varying difficulty that you can explore on your own or with a guided group. At the entrance, you will find maps and information about the different routes and the conditions you should expect.

The park holds an international designation under IUCN category IV, which means it balances habitat protection with carefully managed human activity and research. This approach allows both nature and sustainable recreation to coexist in ways that benefit local communities and the ecosystem.
