Welcome to the National Park of Abruzzo! You undoubtedly heard of the earthquake that devasted the area around L'Aquila, 60 km east of Rome, on April 6. While the damage was extensive in L'Aquila and its surrounding villages, Italy's first national park was not harmed, and it remains a spectacular treasure trove of nature immersed in one of the country's most authentic regions.
