Sant'Eufemia a Maiella

Tucked into the upper Orta valley beneath Abruzzo’s Maiella Massif, Sant’Eufemia a Maiella is a place whose character is shaped by the protected mountain terrain of Maiella National Park. Limestone uplands, beech woods and deeply cut valleys define this inland corner of the Apennines, far from the Adriatic coast. The Orta descends from the massif towards Caramanico Terme, linking the settlement to the wider valley. Maiella is also associated with Pietro da Morrone, the mountain hermit who became Pope Celestine V in 1294.
