Many foreign travellers prefer the beauty of the north of Italy, but to travel to Abruzzo and other southern regions is to witness an age old Italian lifestyle that has not changed for centuries. In Abruzzo you will find ancient beech wood forests inhabited by wild animals, ancient pathways still used by colourfully dressed shepherds with their flocks, majestic castles which now guard nothing but desolate stretches of wilderness. The only sign of life here might be a soaring royal eagle or a lone family of mountain goats.
Although traditionally regarded as a remote, mountainous region, Abruzzo’s eastern border is marked by vast sandy beaches stretching along the Adriatic coast north and south of Pescara. Travel west from here and you will soon enter the hills, which rise quickly to become the famous Abruzzo Mountains, spattered with some of the remotest hill towns in Italy.
The Abruzzo National Park and the newly designated Maiella National Park are protected areas which are rich in Flora and Fauna. You can experience sights from thick forests to flowering meadows and barren high plains to snow capped peaks in Abruzzo. Italian grandmothers call Abruzzo “Gods Country” with good reason.
Casoli is a town in the Province of Chieti in the Abruzzo region, it is situated on a foothill of the Majella mountain. Liscia is situated next to the river Treste and it is characteristic for its medieval and Renaissance style houses. The village lies in a wonderful position on a slope on the left bank of the Treste river. The nostalgic fishing past emerges between San Vito and Fossacesia, where the travocchi, singular fishing huts built on piles, are still today used by the local fishermen
