About this experience

During this day we will explore the Nera and/or Corno rivers.
You will be able to fish in a natural environment surrounded by greenery.
The river is flanked by the old Spoleto-Norcia railway, which we can travel along to get around, either on foot or by bicycle (if you have one), making the day not only about fishing, but also a walk in the countryside. In these rivers you will also be able to fish for native brown trout, born and raised in the river.
