💡 Good to know
- Campo Imperatore's high plain is snow-free and eagle-patrolled, wolves den in the beech forests, and the trabocchi serve long fish lunches over the water.
- Gran Sasso turns genuinely alpine — chains required — while the coast stays mild; this is a two-climates region and winter shows it.
