Pettorano sul Gizio

Pettorano sul Gizio lies along the Gizio River in Abruzzo’s Peligna Valley, with the Apennines enclosing its compact hilltop settlement. The town stands beside the Monte Genzana and Alto Gizio Nature Reserve, an important protected area of woodland, high pasture and wildlife habitat. Its historic centre retains steep stone lanes, old gateways and the Castello Cantelmo, a fortress linked to the medieval Cantelmo family. Pettorano is part of inland Abruzzo, between the larger towns of Sulmona and Roccaraso. See how Pettorano sul Gizio fits within the wider Abruzzo region by browsing webcams nearby.
