It has borders with the provinces of Teramo to the north, Pescara and Chieti to the east, Isernia (in Molise region) to the south and Frosinone, Rome and Rieti (in Lazio region) to the west. Its capital is the city of L'Aquila. The Province of L'Aquila includes the highest mountains of the Apennines (Gran Sasso, Maiella and Velino-Sirente), their highest peak, Corno Grande, the high plain of Campo Imperatore, and Europe's southernmost glacier, the Calderone. The province's major rivers are the Aterno-Pescara, Sangro, Liri, Salto, and the Turano; its major lakes are Lago Scanno and Lago Barrea. It once included the largest lake on the Italian peninsula, Lago Fucino, which was drained in one of the 19th century's largest engineering projects.

Abruzzo is rich in extraordinary historical / cultural testimonies, immersed in one of the most evocative landscape of the Apennines.The self-guided, ring route embraces part of the Peligna, Aterno and Tirino valleys, known for their archaeological and monumental heritage. We will touch L'Aquila, the Gran Sasso with its historic villages, the Peligna Valley with Sulmona and neighboring towns. Among the most characteristic places of faith are the Hermitages of S. Terenziano in Corfinio, of S.Venanzio in Raiano. But it is in medieval evidence that the itineraries best express their potential with churches, villages, castles, palaces and fountains of particular beauty, such as the Oratory of San Pellegrino which together with the Church of Santa Maria Assunta characterize the small center of Bominaco, while the monumentality of the Romanesque architecture of Abruzzo is testified by the church of S. Pelino in Corfinio. All this in the historical cycle tour, a secret journey in Abruzzo!

We saw the two churches in a hurry and then our host disappeared. Nobody was there to open the door at the museum, even upon appointment. Rather visit Sassi at your iwn pace and get tickets as you arrive at the location. Not worth to buy the pass.
