Abruzzo is one of the greenest and least crowded regions in Italy: stone villages clinging to the mountainside, solitary hermitages, boundless highlands and three national parks where chamois and wolves still roam. Authentic, wild destinations far from mass tourism, where nature sets the pace and the towns preserve flavours, silence and traditions that have vanished elsewhere.
