Umbra Forest

In the heart of the Gargano National Park, Foresta Umbra owes its name to the thick vegetation that makes it very shaded in many places. Its elevations reach up to 800 meters above sea level, with some areas approaching the coast.

It is the green lung of the Gargano National Park, a protected natural reserve that extends up to an altitude of 800 meters: a spectacular anomaly for an area situated just 25 km from the sea. With its 10,000 hectares of territory, Foresta Umbra is rich in beech, oak, hornbeam, maple, lime, and yew trees.
