In touch with nature:
The evocative Canyons of Celano, well known by trecking enthusiasts, have been formed over thousands of years by washed-away erosion of the Foce Waterfall, originating in Ovindoli.

The canyons are traversable for 5 km in the direction of the Valley of Arano.

The smooth walls which constitute them, at some points rise to a height of 200 metres, and at some points allow the light to infiltrate them.
