Riserva naturale guidata Gole del Sagittario, Regional nature reserve in Anversa degli Abruzzi, Italy.

Riserva naturale guidata Gole del Sagittario is a regional reserve established in 1997 in the municipality of Anversa degli Abruzzi, province of L'Aquila. It covers the lower valley of the Sagittario River from Villalago to Cocullo, where the gorge begins at the San Domenico dam near the hermitage of San Domenico. The gorge walls are layered grey and tan limestone; the left slope is partly wooded and carries a narrow paved road with a low barrier, while the right wall rises as a near-vertical pale grey face with dark streaks and overhangs.

The reserve's name comes from the Sagittario river, and the gorge section begins at the San Domenico dam beside the hermitage of San Domenico near Villalago. The reserve also holds a botanical garden, a museum, a picnic area and marked trails, and the neighbouring Monte Genzana e Alto Gizio reserve lies close by.

Access is by car from the Cocullo exit of the A25 Roma-Pescara motorway, continuing to Anversa degli Abruzzi; ARPA buses run from Sulmona, and trains connect Roma Tiburtina with Sulmona. Inside the reserve are marked trails, a picnic area, a botanical garden and a museum. The gorge section begins at the San Domenico dam near the hermitage of San Domenico, by Villalago.

The reserve's most valued plant is the fiordaliso del Sagittario, a cornflower exclusive to these gorges, discovered a few decades ago by the botanist Anzalone. It grows alongside Campanula cavolinii, endemic to Abruzzo, and the rare Ephedra dei Nebrodi. The reserve's emblem is the picchio muraiolo, the wallcreeper.
