E-Bike Adventure
From the Aqua Montis Resort & Spa, take the cycle track into the Difesa forest, just behind the Resort. After a few kilometres, you’ll reach the area outside Rivisondoli and then take the cycle path to Pescocostanzo.
Just below the village, a descent will lead you to the area of the masserie, before reaching the nature reserve of the Bosco di Sant’Antonio.
This centuries-old beech forest, nestled in the heart of the Majella National Park, is a true spectacle for the eyes in every season, first and foremost autumn, when the foliage phenomenon tints the landscape gold, brown and red.
Returning to Pescocostanzo, you will ride a semi-dirt track uphill to Vallefura, and then enter Pescocostanzo, an enchanting medieval village with a long tradition for ironworking, lacemaking and goldsmithing, not to mention the ancient historical palazzos that draw its unmistakable fairy-tale profile.
Again, along the cycle path to Rivisondoli, a delightful village nestled in the heart of the Apennines, and then back to the Resort along a long cycle path.

You will observe breathtaking views as you pedal for about 16 km along the ss 17 to Fontanella vecchia napoleonica.
After passing through the tunnel, you proceed south towards the Church of the Madonna del Carmine, located on the slopes of the Madonna del Casale Mountain.
The return to the resort draws a loop through the valleys bordering the Cinquemiglia plateau.
Let yourself be overwhelmed by the beauty of endless open spaces: the vast fields of Solina wheat. The real gold of the area is this ancient and very precious wheat that is cultivated at an altitude of around 1,200 metres. Departing for Rivisondoli, you will then return to your hotel.
