  • Abruzzi National Park is located about 130 miles south of Rome. The terrain is mountainous and rugged. The park is still the home of bears and wolves. We only saw some less dangerous creatures: goats and deer. We only did a quick drive through one area of the park, roads are few but the scenery is plentiful.

  • Latina I joined my husband on his business trip out there for a week. There was not much to see and do in Latina but they had plenty of good food though ;-)

  • Isola Del Liri

    This is a very interesting town near Frosinone at only 130 Km from Rome. Boncompagni Plaza is the heart of the town. The local 'Blues Festival' generally takes place in August.
    You have to take some time to admire the wonderful waterfall located right in the center of the town.

  • Sermoneta

    is a medieval village nestled on the side of the mountains overlooking Latina. If you need to hide from the unrelenting sun in Latina, you can go to the beach or run for the mountains. If you choose for the mountains, try Sermoneta. It is beautiful and still unspoiled.
    Location
    from Rome: take the 148 S.S. Pontina in the direction of Latina, near Latina take exit FS - Sermoneta.(FS stands for railway station)

    From Freeway A1: Valmontone exit, towards Giuglianello, Choruses, Doganella.

  • Sperlonga is another of these small medieval villages. This one is located on a hilltop overlooking the Mediterranean. It really stands out as it is mostly painted white. The narrow alleys with lots of winding stairs open up view after view of the beaches and the sea. It is said to have been a favorite place for pirates, who brought in cash and trade.
