The hike from Campo Imperatore to the highest peak of Apennines, Corno Grande, guards Abruzzo’s soul, harsh and generous at the same time.Campo Imperatore plateau legendarily owes its name to Federico II and thanks to the unique landscape it’s called Little Tibet: a boundless karst plan of breath-taking beauty. It’s a big plateau bordered by Gran Sasso mountain range, from the severe, imposing summit of the Corno Grande to Fonte Vetica and Vado di Sole.The Corno Grande summit is a little paradise for mountain lovers and climbers, amongst its barren, beautiful vertical rock face, the scenery is almost Alpine, with the sea so near.
