Day Out: Pescocostanzo – Thursday 30th April

Description

Experience filigree, forests, and the magic of Golden Hour in one of Abruzzo’s most beautiful mountain towns.

Join us on 30th April for a special day in Pescocostanzo. We’ll start with artisan workshops in the morning, enjoy a traditional lunch at a local agriturismo, and finish with a walk through the ancient Bosco di Sant’Antonio amongst a carpet of crocuses beginning to bloom.

The day includes:

Taking a guided stroll through Pescocostanzo’s artisan quarter, visiting filigree jewellers, a cheese shop, handwoven knitwear makers, and the lace museum.
Enjoying a two-course lunch with wine, followed by coffee and biscuits, at a favourite agriturismo.
Moving straight into the trees for an easy 2.8 km post-lunch ramble through the Bosco di Sant’Antonio, with a local guide who will share the forest’s history and wildlife.

What you need to know:

• Dress in layers. It stays fresh in the mountains at 1,200 meters, even in April.
• Comfortable flat shoes, or supportive walking boots for those who prefer
•  Please note that you’ll need your own transport, although we will arrange car pools.
