Any trader From Italy?

Abruzzo to the east, the Simbruini to the south. Leave Rome around 7:30, park the car by 9, and by 1 you're having lunch at 2000 meters. Of course there are easier hikes, but I usually aim for about 1000 meters of climbing.

Unfortunately winter has finally hit, and I won't be going out again until late January, and then it'll be scaled back.

For me that's one of the great things about living in Rome. You can spend one day at the beach and the next in the moutains--and still have the city as your base.

Sounds very nice. I can't find any websites about Simbruini in English, but here is one in Italian:

PS. Any trains or buses to the park?

There are a number of towns in it, there'll be at least a bus to each. But that'd take too long for for a day trip.

It's just a big city. I'd rather go to Naples. More crime, but with the sea

It's also overrun with tourists. Naples isn't, and Rome is big enough to absorb them.
