My name is Lucio graziano, I was Born in 1970, I'm a licenced Environmental Guide since 2009. I worked for 14 years in the environmental sector, as a consultant I was engaged in European projects and policies, promoting nature, landscape and biodiversity protection...

Now as a tour leader I think I'm doing more or less the same job, but instead of doing it on paper, I do it directly with my hikes' guests. My desire is to share my love for nature and the landscape, pointing out how they have been shaped in time and how man have been affecting them.

My job is to design tours in significant nature and landscape spots, study on field and on literature the areas's highlights: the geology, botany, archaeology, history, traditions, etc. and make a synthesis of the most interesting informations to tell, keeping just the ones that are related to the visible landscape.

In 2014 I've changed life, moving from a large northern Italy's city, Turin, to a village of the Reti's province: Magliano Sabina, 70km northward Rome. Me and my girlfriend Giulia, have started a self-production farming activity: we grow wheat, spelt, legumes, vegetables, olive and fruit trees, so that we can personally experiment our way to make a landscape!

We have many cats and two dogs: two marvellous white sheep dogs: "Lana" and "Bianca" that protect our crops from wildboars!

, the religious habits and the agricoltural practises! There is a connection between all the things we do and we love this. 

Someone said: "a naturalist is a nature's curious one" and must be capable to interpret nature's signs.

Immersions into landscape (I. i. L.) is an excursions, or rather, "incursions" program, in the rural territory, strictly on foot or by bicycle, suitable for those who are curious of observing and understanding the landscape in which they live or in which they spend holidays and want to share with new friends this experience turning it into an opportunity to meet, dialogue and having fun.

I. i. L. is a rural experience that is not limited exclusively to wine & food, it includes learning about plants and animals, agricultural systems, old varieties of cultivated plants, local sayings, beliefs and popular imagination, little minor architectural monuments and ancient building techniques , past societies that shaped landscape and landscape evolution to date, and much more ...

The I. i. L. excursions have the precise aim to let the participants deeply enter into local culture and to imprint in their hearts the visited places, and to possibly be able to make comparisons with their territories of origin.

Infact, we all share deep rural roots, and through the landscape storytellling , you'll be able to aknowledge it. As Tolstoy said: "If you describe well your village, you will talk to the whole world".

• The trips are by bike (MTB) or on foot. The tours introduced in this site are an example of what you can do, but trips can be tailored according to your needs and preferences as well, so, you can suggest other departure dates and combine destinations and activities according to your needs. CONTACT ME for your private tour!

• The sporting performance is NOT important, you will walk/ride on roads and trails for hikers, the most important thing is just that you get to the final destination "enriched".

• Anyway the paths are not always very easy, sometimes you need a bit of training, otherwise you are not having fun and you risk getting hurt, you should be sure to be well aware of the paths difficulty levels before booking. Nevertheless that bit of effort and challenge often is also the ingredient that makes the trip unique and rich in satisfaction.

• The excursions are not too many kilometers long, and include some stops every now and then for talking about the landscape that can be seen (day trips are on average 15 -45 km, by mountain bike, and 6 -10 km when walking).

• excursions are interactive therefore who wants to intervene by bringing his own experience is welcome. The atmosphere is relaxed, informal and non-academic.
