アベッツァノのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The church of San Pietro in Albe stands on the hill of San Pietro, one of the three hills surrounding Alba Fucens, the Roman city founded in 304 BC.

I left from Antrosano, I reached the archaeological area of Alba Fucens which is always beautiful to see. Coffee break and departure towards the source of Malazzano with an unexpected and welcome collection of asparagus. Return to Antrosano. Easy beautiful route that I definitely recommend.

A typical destination for hiking from Avezzano. There are also nice places around to enjoy a picnic, the view or small hikes
