The medieval village of Civitella Alfedena is located on Lake Barrea at 1,212 meters above sea level. Its narrow streets and stone houses make the village very suggestive and in the center there is the visitor point and the Apennine wolf museum. Many people leave from here to go on excursions in the Camosciara nature reserve.

Civitella Alfedena is one of the prettiest and best preserved villages in Abruzzo. Due to its typical appearance of the medieval villages of the Apennine mountains.
