Adventure hiking with children Munich Mountains 2

<p><span style="text-align: justify;">The pristine mountain landscape of Abruzzo stretches from the highest peaks of the Apennines to the Adriatic coast. The "green heart" of Italy beats here: a third of the region is protected as a national park or nature park. Wonderful hikes lead up to rugged rocky peaks, through dense forests and to centuries-old mountain villages. The Rother hiking guide "Abruzzo" presents 60 routes - from easy to difficult, from short to day-long.</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Through ancient beech forests into the "Valley of a Hundred Waterfalls". Cool off on hot days in the green meadows of the wild Orfento Gorge. And those who climb the Corno Grande, the highest peak in Abruzzo at almost 3,000 meters, will experience impressive high mountain scenery. The panoramic view from the highest point is overwhelming. Vineyards and olive groves stretch between the rocky peaks and the Adriatic coast. Charming villages, ancient castles and excavations, monasteries, churches and hermitages - anyone who wanders through Abruzzo also explores ancient cultural land.</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Each route is presented with reliable directions, an informative elevation profile and a hiking map with the route marked. All important information is clearly listed. There are also numerous tips on places to stop for refreshments, accommodation, route options and places of interest.
