September on the Conero Riviera
September on the Conero: The perfect time to breathe in nature and the sea
September on the Conero isn’t just a month—it’s a state of mind.
It’s a time when summer seems unwilling to end, when nature invites you to slow down and reveals its beauty gently, without fanfare. The sea still welcomes those who want to dive in, and the trails are perfect for exploring the landscape step by step.
It’s the ideal moment for anyone dreaming of the summer holiday they haven’t yet taken—or for those craving a brief, refreshing escape.
For birdwatching enthusiasts, September offers a truly special experience.
In the early morning, from the Giardino del Poggio, the sky comes alive with the flight of honey buzzards, marsh harriers, common buzzards, and even peregrine falcons. At sunset, along the Pian Grande trail, the show continues as birds of prey begin their hunt, painting the horizon with emotion.
For trekking lovers, September brings perfect days.
The Conero Park reveals its wildest soul with trails suited to every level. From the Belvedere Nord, your gaze opens onto white cliffs and the endless Adriatic, while the forest paths offer unexpected encounters—nimble squirrels, curious roe deer, and silent porcupines—that turn every hike into something out of a fairytale.
Outdoor activities are truly accessible to all and offer a genuine way to connect with nature.
Cycling enthusiasts can follow panoramic mountain bike trails winding through rolling hills and vineyards heavy with grapes at harvest time.
Thrill-seekers can try their hand at free climbing on the cliffs, with breathtaking views of the sea always by their side.
And for those who prefer a slower pace, there’s the joy of Nordic walking or a sunset horseback ride, as the coastline turns soft shades of pink.
In September, the beaches grow quiet and the Conero sea reveals its most intimate side.
During the calmest hours of the day, a SUP or kayak outing lets you glide along the coast, discovering hidden coves and crystal-clear waters.
Whether in front of the majestic Due Sorelle beach or surrounded by the lush greenery of Portonovo Bay, time seems to stand still—leaving only the slow breath of the waves and a deep sense of renewal.
The spirit of the Conero is also found in its hilltop villages, which in September offer the same quiet charm.
Sirolo and Numana, with their salt-scented alleyways, come alive with local events, festivals, and celebrations of traditional flavors.
It’s the warmth of small-town life—genuine, welcoming, and unhurried—that invites you to pause, savor, and relax.
September on the Conero is an invitation to give yourself time—a memory to take home, infused with nature, sea, and pure happiness.
