Ripabottoni Summary


















Grace and I really enjoyed our time in Ripabottoni, especially reconnecting with family. We also got to see the houses where both Grace's grandmother and grandfather lived. We had always heard that Ripabottoni was small, but I found the streets to be larger and you can get to more places by car than in Pietracatella. And I find that Ripabottoni is trying harder than Pietracatella to attract tourism. Outside the village they have a park where you can picnic and are surrounded by nature. There is a bike path to tour the countryside and there are hiking trails. There is even a country style villa with a pool where you can stay overnight and there are horses for horseback riding during the day.
