A 3-day wolf-tracking experience in Abruzzo National Park, Italy, is offered year-round by European Safari Company (Toernooiveld 1, 6525 ED Nijmegen, Netherlands; phone +31 68 3583 623, www.europeansafaricompany.com).

Led on hikes by a local guide, participants follow trails in search of wild wolves while also experiencing the natural beauty of the park. If spotted, wolves will be observed from a distance.

Including two nights’ accommodation, breakfasts, dinners, guiding and transfers, a tracking experience starts at 460 (near $505) per person, double occupancy. For the best chances at finding wolves, a winter trip is recommended.
