Tratturo Pescasseroli-Candela, Historic drovers' road in Abruzzo, Italy.

The Tratturo Pescasseroli-Candela extends for 211 kilometers through mountainous regions, reaching widths of 60 meters in certain sections.

Dating back to Roman times, this road network established in 111 BC served as a crucial route for seasonal livestock movement between mountain pastures and coastal plains.

The passage functions as a central pathway for the annual movement of sheep herds, maintaining centuries-old pastoral traditions in central-southern Italy.

Visitors can explore the route through hiking, cycling, or horseback riding while discovering various municipalities across four different Italian regions.

The path follows the supposed route of the ancient Via Minucia Traiana, connecting Pescasseroli in Abruzzo to Candela in Apulia through diverse landscapes.
