Le Tre Croci

Highlight • Monument

Here you'll find three large crosses depicting the crucifixion of Jesus and the two thieves. For those living in Bagnaturo and Sulmona, they're a constant visual reference: looking up at the mountain from below, they stand out clearly against the ridge.

Beyond their spiritual significance, this site is renowned for the incredible panoramic view it offers of the Peligna Valley; once you reach them, you feel as if you're standing on a natural terrace suspended in the void. The crosses are often illuminated for special occasions or religious holidays, making them visible even at night from across the valley below.

Pietraferrazzana Rock Spur

Highlight • Natural Monument

Picturesque village of medieval origin which has only 132 inhabitants. But what it is famous for is its size: Pietraferrazzana, in fact, is the smallest town in Abruzzo. A pearl of extraordinary beauty and tranquility, waiting to be discovered, which takes its name from the rocky spur that overlooks the town on the top of which are the ruins of the old castle.
