Italy focuses once again\u00a0on sustainable<\/strong> tourism<\/strong>. In what has been declared the National Year<\/strong> of Walks<\/strong><\/a>, Abruzzo<\/strong> has decided to recover<\/strong> an old abandoned railway<\/strong> near Pescara and turn it into a picturesque cycle-pedestrian trail<\/strong> that goes into the green and blue<\/strong>\u00a0heart of the<\/strong> region<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It happens more and more often that\u00a0abandoned railroads of our country \u00a0are reconsidered as important places for tourism<\/strong>, for the characteristic beauty and their paths often surrounded by pristine green.<\/p>\n

It was the council of the town of Montesilvano<\/strong> to approve the recovery plan; It is right here that\u00a0will start\u00a0the 20 km of new cycle-path, which will continue until reaching Collecorvino<\/strong>, via Cappelle sul Tavo and Moscufo. It will start near the sea and\u00a0will continue into the hinterland of Abruzzo, which will connect with the beautiful Adriatic cycle-path.<\/p>\n

\"cycle-path<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The MoU was signed and approved; it\u00a0will run for\u00a0five years and it initiates the establishment of an operating table that will define the technical project, and then the\u00a0work will start in the former Pescara-Penne railway line.<\/p>\n

The Councillor for environmental policies and sustainable mobility<\/strong> of the municipality of Montesilvano, Fabio Vaccaro, thus says the project:<\/p>\n

“With this agreement we intend to launch a series of interventions aimed at the restoration and enhancement of the environment of the railway line that once united Montesilvano to Collecorvino. It is the duty of an administration seize every opportunity to stimulate and enhance the vocation of its territory. This project allows us to encourage pedestrian and cycle tourism that can be one of Montesilvano flywheels and of the entire area. The work already started\u00a0along the coast for the construction of the Bike to Coast, the cycle-path that will develop all along the Abruzzo coast from Martinsicuro to San Salvo, will be further integrated with the project that will result from this agreement. Our region has a great peculiarity: can boast landscapes of the sea to those of hills and mountains. The cycle-path that could be achieved by means of this convention will offer itineraries that take you from the sea to the hinterland, perfect for lovers of nature tourism.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
