The Marche / Abruzzo / Abruzzo region
Abruzzo Green Region of Europe: one third of the territory is designated as national or regional park.
Pescasseroli is in the ABRUZZO NATIONAL PARK, a protected landscape of ancient beech woods, lakes and rocky outcrops. Here the Park’s mascot, the Marsican brown bear, still survives. This unspoilt environment also supports wolves, chamois, deer and golden eagle.
In the past, Pescasseroli was an agricultural centre and shepherds would set out with their flock on their annual pilgrimage to new pasture. These old tracks now form the basis of a network of walking paths through forests and along hillsides to dramatic viewpoints.
The little town is still a centre of leatherwork, woodcarving and wrought iron and is a good base for a fascinating range of excursions.
