of the clear waters of Lake San Domenico, which takes its name from the hermitage overlooking its shores where the saint so dear to the Abruzzese and to whom they attribute many prodigious miracles lived in solitude and contemplation.

ore 17:30-18:30 Guided tour in the historic center ofScanno. Through the alleys of the ancient village of Scanno it is possible to retrace the history of a time when pastoralism and craftsmanship made this village one of the richest centers in Abruzzo. The monumental buildings bear witness to this, fountains and numerous churches, like the parish church of S. Maria della Valle. The numerous goldsmith shops perpetuate an ancient tradition whose most famous product is the Presentosa, still worn by Scannese women together with the traditional dress that in the past declared its social class. We recommend to taste and buy the excellent Scacciese mostacciolo at the "Pan dell’Orso" Pastry Shop.
