Agriturismo La Capezzagna

Activities, destinations and Touristic Attractions

The agritourism

La Capezzagna” is located in Ripa Teatina, a little town on a hill surrounded by uplands and wide valleys covered by typical crops of the area, mostly vineyards and olive groves, once used to breed silkworms.

On one side you can admire the sea and on the other the Majella mountain chain.

The proximity to both of them allows you to reach seaside and mountain locations and also Chieti and Pescara, the most important cities, perfectly linked through thoroughfares. 

Within the range of 40 km you can visit unique cities and landscapes.

Mild and healthy climate through most of the year is ideal for those who wish to come back in the quiet of the little hamlet, after exhausting excursions.

Going from the Adriatic Coast to the Majella mountain chain, you can admire the famous Trabocchi coast, sandy and rocky beaches, commercial and touristic ports, vineyards, olive groves, lands with different colors according to seasons and towns full of history, food traditions and hospitality.
