Barrea

Barrea has served as a mountain settlement in Abruzzo since the Middle Ages. Rising above Lago di Barrea, an artificial lake on the Sangro River, it lies within Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park, amid wooded slopes and the high terrain of the Apennines. Its compact historic centre leads towards the remains of a medieval castle, with stone-built houses and narrow lanes retaining the character of an old upland community. The lake and protected valleys around it place Barrea firmly in one of central Italy’s most important wilderness areas.
