This phrase is engraved in the mountainous rock, and the Maiella massif really is, for the people of Abruzzo, a mother: female, mystical, fertile.
The Maiella National Park (one of the 24 Italian parks) gathers around the cluster of Apennine mountains and, since 2021, is a UNESCO Global Geopark. Under its wing there are 74,000 kilometers of breathtaking panorama, 38 municipalities, three provinces, and a spectacular geographic range hosting an extremely rich biodiversity: one third of Italy’s flora species resides here.
