LORETO APRUTINO - PESCARA PROVINCE

Loreto Aprutino is one of the most picturesque hilltop towns in Abruzzo.   It is a fabulous location for exploring the region being located so close to famous historic towns, pristine beaches and rugged mountains.

Just minutes away is the Gran Sasso National Park which is perfect for nature lovers and extremely popular with trekkers, mountain climbers and skiers.

The town itself is typically medieval and its historical architecture is best enjoyed by strolling through the atmospheric streets and alley ways.  There are churches, museums, palaces and the famous Castello Chiola, now one of the best and most imposing hotels of the area.  There are plenty of restaurants and bars to excite gastronomes and casual diners alike and there is a weekly market selling local produce every Thursday.  The town has all necessary amenities such as banks, shops and pharmacies and a daily bus service to Pescara brings more attractions and services.

The production of olive oil is very important for the town-s economy hence the museum dedicated to this traditional delicacy and the many olive groves that dot the surrounding hills.
