The use of ancient cellars that were dug out of the rock in the old houses creates a magical feeling of living in the past that enhances and enlivens the event. In the soft light of the evening, the sounds of the ancient trades set in the original workshops will resound, the festive call of the visitors, the notes of the “street bands” and the dialectal songs of the boys’ groups will animate the ancient Via Valeria and the surrounding alleys.

Besides the chestnuts, it will be possible to taste dishes based on truffles and mushrooms, pancakes, jams and sweets typical of the area. Read more3rd Weekend October – Chestnut Festival, (Festa delle Castagne), Senarica, TE – If you are in need of an autumn chestnut pilgrimage whilst in Abruzzo, we’d recommend the chestnut festa in Senarica di Crognaleto, Abruzzo which celebrates the local lu ‘nzite variety. The smell of slow roasted chestnuts intermingling with arrosticini, grilled local sausages, sweet whiffs of vino cotto, is something that could make even the ashes in the local cemetery wake up & put themselves together in order to feast. Sat in the middle of the mountains of the Gran Sasso National Park and overlooking a ridge of the River Vomano, beautiful Senarica di Crognaleto was once the world’s former smallest republic and granted its official title and protection by the Venetian Republic in the 15th century.
