The deer reserve offers an immersive experience of their natural habitat. The path is accessible to all; part of it is paved and part is a gravel surface, allowing access for adapted wheelchairs. Along the 1.5 km route, you’ll see a stream and a natural lake, the woods, and you’ll walk alongside the enclosure where deer and other wild animals live in semi-freedom. A small chapel is also easily accessible (you’ll need to walk a few dozen metres uphill from the start of the walk).

A fairly easy and very pleasant walk connecting a small village to a slightly larger town. The start is a little steep, but the walk is worth the effort, with breathtaking scenery. An accessible walk in a less frequented part of Abruzzo
