Itineraries in Abruzzo

Since the 19th century travellers and literature have been describing Abruzzo as a "strong and gentle" region. Words which do not solely refer to the temper of local inhabitants.
Abruzzo is as strong and gentle as its landscape and scenic splendour: as strong as the solemn majesty of Gran Sasso and Majella and as gentle as the cool, green forests sweeping down the hillsides to meet an inviting gentle coast of wide, golden sands.
Timeless and different landscapes follow one after another while revealing villages and towns, amazing jewels of art and handicraft, as a prove of the ancient Abruzzo splendour: that greatness which is not the only shown in the largely abused ichnography of sheep and bagpipes.
