About
Experience the wild side of Abruzzo, less than 1.5 hours outside of Rome.
🥾 We’ll make our way up Mt. La Torricella after crossing a beautiful
beech forest, past a picnic area located at the trail head, and once we
made it past a valley, with a scenery that might remind you of some of
the landscapes in Austria – however, we are in the wild heart of
Abruzzo. Animal encounters are possible, as the terrain is used by
free-roaming horses and cattle.
