This is a little-known protected area. The characteristic feature is the sulphurous waters of the Lavino river, which are of an intense turquoise colour. Right at the entrance to the park there is an area equipped with tables and a play area.

Protected Area of the Lavino Park, where the sulphurous waters of the river of the same name in which dissolved sulphates are present, give the lakes, spring pools and streams a characteristic and suggestive blue-turquoise colour. Perfect for a nice relaxing walk.

The Cave of Sant'Angelo di Lettomanoppello in the Vallone di Sant'Angelo is a place of uncertain origin, mentioned in the Decrees of the First Holy Visit of the bishop of Chieti in 1844. It is believed that the hermitage is dated thanks to the presence of a statue of San Michele Arcangelo similar to that of San Tommaso in Caramanico, dating back to the XIII century. According to legend, the hermitage was inhabited by a man of holiness, but he mysteriously disappeared leaving behind the statue of the angel. In front of the rocky outcrop where a church once stood, today only a rectangular enclosure remains called the Bed of Sant'Angelo. Furthermore, in front of the church is the Fonte del Garzillo.

The valley takes its name from the Alento river which descends from the Colle Petrera spring, until it reaches the Serramonacesca Valley.
