バレーテのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Pizzoli is a picturesque town nestled in the upper Aterno Valley, harmoniously nestled between the hills of L'Aquila and the slopes of the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park. Dominated by the imposing silhouette of Dragonetti de Torres Castle, which towers over the town with its Renaissance elegance, the village offers a charming mix of historic alleys and noble architecture, surrounded by lush nature.

The Spufa Refuge is a small, rustic mountain outpost located in the heart of the Peligna Valley, on the slopes of the Morrone massif and a short distance from the village of Bagnaturo. Nestled in a clearing surrounded by thick woods, it is a key stopping point for those hiking the trails to the highest peaks, offering essential shelter and an enchanting view that encompasses the entire valley below in an atmosphere of profound mountain tranquility.

Beautiful ridge, very panoramic and almost completely free of difficulties

There is no refreshment stop

Great all around view

Just above the Panepucci refuge is this panoramic point. From here you can admire the Campotosto lake, the Laga mountains, the Sibillini mountains and the Terminillo complex. It is worth taking a walk just to get here.

The refuge, or rather bivouac, is located at an altitude of 1,700 meters at the foot of Mount San Franco. Perhaps one of the few refuges dedicated to the memory of a female mountaineer: Antonella Panepucci Alessandri from L'Aquila, who died during a descent from Gran Sasso in 1976. At the beginning of the summer, in June, the meadows around the refuge fill up with wild peonies. Restoration work began in September 2023, so it could be closed for the relevant winter season.
