Pescocostanzo

This photogenic village in Abruzzo's Maiella National Park, Pescocostanzo has an unusual concentration of historic churches and a pocket-sized but real café and restaurant scene for its size. Listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia, it draws visitors year-round — in winter for its own ski resort, with the nearby towns of Roccaraso and Rivisondoli adding further options on the slopes.
