The Sabina area is still authentic and unspoilt, untouched by mass tourism. It is a magical land of legends (the Rape of the Sabine woman among them), of castles, medieval little towns connected by winding country roads, elegant restaurants and family run taverne, and breath-taking scenery wherever you go. Famous is it's extra vergin olive oil with its Sabina DOP recognition.

Riding schools, golf courses immersed in the green countryside, along with Mount Terminillo ski resorts and several naturalistic itineraries, are some of the possibilities for sports lovers in an uncontaminated natural environment.

The Franciscan sanctuaries; the Farfa Abbey for centuries a witness to the power of the Roman Church; the Romanesque churches of Vescovio and Santa Vittoria; the archaeological sites and ancient Roman town of Trebula Mutuesca and Forum Novum as well as, the national parks and lakes, and the capital city Rieti are among the many attractions in Sabina.
