The Abruzzo is the most mountainous region of the Apennines: From the seaside resort of Pescara, which lies at sea level, it is only about 50 kilometers as the crow flies to the Corno Grande, the highest peak of the, at 2,912 meters, Gran Sasso. The differences are correspondingly great: The Adriatic coast around Pescara and Teramo has a Mediterranean climate with hot summers around 30 degrees, while L’Aquila, situated at 714 meters, has cool nights even in the height of summer—and regular snow in the winter. The plateaus such as Campo Imperatore („Little Tibet of Italy“) and the Maiella are among the snowiest parts of the country; ski resorts like Roccaraso depend on it. So if you're planning to visit both the coast and the mountains in a single day, you should always check the forecasts for both.

For the Trabocchi Coast The beaches around Pescara are open for swimming from June through September; the water in the Adriatic reaches up to 26 degrees in August. Hikers in the Gran Sasso or Maiella National Parks will find the most stable conditions from June through October—with the usual Apennine rule: start early, because summer thunderstorms usually develop over the ridges in the afternoon. Skiers visit from December through March. Check out our overview to see what the weather is like in the rest of the country Weather Italy; You can find the latest news in the Weather News.
