The Monti Sabini is a mountain range in the Apennines of Latium, central Italy.[2][1]
It is located in a north-south direction between the Monti Reatini at the east and the Tiber valley at the west.[1][3] The upper section is the Monti Sabini proper, on the boundary between Latium and Umbria, and the Monti Lucretili sub-range, on the boundary between the province of Rieta and the Metropolitan City of Rome. The two sub-ranges are separated by the plain and hilly areas of the Sabina. The highest peak of the range is Monte Tancia, at 1,282 m (4,206 ft).[1]
