Cappadocia

Cappadocia is a village in the Abruzzo Apennines on the border with Lazio, in the Nerfa valley, surrounded by the great beech forests of the Monti Simbruini. Its history is tied to the monasteries of Montecassino and to the lordships of the Orsini and Colonna families. In the hamlet of Petrella Liri the springs of the river Liri rise, and the area is home to natural caves such as the Grotta di Beatrice Cenci and the Grotta Cola. At over 1,400 metres, on Monte Cesa, the hamlet of Camporotondo hosts a small ski resort with a chairlift and a beginners' magic carpet, ideal for families, as well as cross-country skiing trails. When the snow melts, the paths lead through beech woods and upland plains to the Sanctuary of the Santissima Trinità at Vallepietra; there is also the Sentiero delle Lanne with its wooden sculptures, the Petrella Liri crag for climbing, and the gorges of Cappadocia and Verrecchie for canyoning. An authentic mountain destination, perfect for a holiday home or a retreat in the greenery. Le Case di Reno accompanies you from the first viewing all the way to the deed of sale.
