The Ziomas Valley greets us with a serene winter landscape, where slopes and karst sinkholes are softened by the snow cover. The patterns left by the wind and the traces of wolves and foxes guide us as if in a fascinating tale. From the saddle that opens onto Ferroio di Scanno, the view is lost in the beauty of the landscape. It's a magnificent scene, dominated by the peaks of Mount Godi and Mount Marsicano, and further away, those of Camosciara and Mount Petroso.
