Riserva naturale Nomentum, Regional nature reserve in Fonte Nuova and Mentana, Italy.
The reserve spans 827 hectares of hilly terrain with deciduous forests, olive groves, and cultivated fields at elevations exceeding 200 meters above sea level.
Archaeological findings within the reserve reveal human settlements from the Early Bronze Age, around 2300 BC, including remains of Roman structures and roads.
The territory contains sections of Mentana's historical center and holds the National Museum of the Roman Countryside Campaign, established in 1905.
Access to the reserve is possible through the SS Salaria and SP Nomentana roads, with train connections available from Roma Tiburtina station to Mentana-Monterotondo.
The reserve forms an ecological transition zone between the Tiber Valley floodplain and the Cornicolani Mountains, preserving plant communities along the hydrological network.
