Riserva naturale guidata Sorgenti del Fiume Pescara, Regional nature reserve near Popoli, Italy.

The Sorgenti del Fiume Pescara is a protected nature reserve near Popoli in the Abruzzo region. The landscape consists of mixed woodlands and meadows crossed by crystal-clear spring water that emerges from underground and begins its flow as the river.

The reserve was established by a regional law of 31 October 1986, protecting a wetland of about 135 hectares at Capo Pescara: 49 hectares as the protected area and 86 hectares as a buffer zone. Management was entrusted to the municipality of Popoli, with the collaboration of WWF and Legambiente. Only in recent years have projects been launched to study its biodiversity.

The reserve lies in the locality called Capo Pescara, where the Pescara river rises; the protected area covers 49 hectares and a further 86 hectares form a buffer zone. Management is entrusted to the Comune di Popoli Terme with the collaboration of WWF and Legambiente. Only in recent years have projects been launched to study the biodiversity of the wetland.

Visitors can enter the reserve at no cost any time of year and find parking spaces nearby. Guided tours and information materials help you learn about the ecological features on your own terms.

The reserve covers about 135 hectares at Capo Pescara, split between 49 hectares of protected area and 86 hectares of buffer zone. It lies west of the Pescara–Rome motorway and railway, so the wetland is visible from both. Management is entrusted to the Comune di Popoli Terme with WWF and Legambiente.
