Montereale

Montereale straddles the upper valley of the Aterno River in Abruzzo, and its position in the central Apennines has made it a small mountain centre between the L’Aquila area and the borderlands of Lazio. The comune is spread across numerous hamlets, reflecting the dispersed settlement pattern of this high inland country. Stone-built homes and parish churches lend the historic centre a distinctly Abruzzese character, while the surrounding slopes and valleys set a quieter rhythm than the nearby regional capital.
