Italian Apennines: Walks & Wildlife

Track bears and wolves on guided walks in Abruzzo’s Apennines, staying at a characterful hotel and a remote mountain refuge on a wildlife‑focused adventure from Rome. Spend four nights at Villino Quintiliani Hotel, a four-star 1920s art nouveau mansion just outside Pescasseroli, with only 11 bedrooms and a peaceful setting near the national park visitor centre. One night is at Terraegna Mountain Refuge, with solar electricity, wood-burning stove, communal dining, dorm bunkbeds and shared facilities.
