The Bosco degli Abeti Soprani, the Forest of the Tall Firs, is a place cloaked in charm and ancestral mystery, where you can still hear the echo of the hunting parties of the men who peopled these lands as far back as 200,000 years ago, and the sinister howl of the wolf, lord of the forests. We are not talking about Norse sagas, warriors and battles of bygone ages – even if the atmosphere evoked by these unspoilt places seems, as if by some dark spell, to have taken shape from the pages of Tolkien – but about one of the most fascinating settings of Alto Molise, Pescopennataro, the “village of firs and stone”. Perched on a rocky spur at an altitude of about 1,200 metres, on an impregnable natural fortress overlooking the entire Sangro valley, this delightful mountain village stands on the border between Abruzzo and Molise, in a sort of Middle-earth, to stay with the Tolkien theme. The village is literally immersed in an extensive wooded area, almost swallowed up by forests of silver fir that are among the most important in the whole central-southern Apennines. Mighty and rare specimens of silver fir, imposing beeches, springs and streams of crystal-clear water, like those of Rio Verde, gushing from the bowels of the mountain, expanses of high-altitude pasture: this is the extraordinary sight offered by Pescopennataro, an unmissable stop for visitors who appreciate the landscape and natural heritage that only the highest reaches of Molise, at these latitudes, can offer. It is a mountain resort for hiking and walking, climbing the marked trails that cross the Bosco degli Abeti Soprani and lead to the hermitage of San Luca, an evocative little church built against a rock face, in a panoramic spot from which you can enjoy a magnificent view. The changing seasons alter the canvas painted by Nature: the luxuriant riot of tones and shades of green in spring and summer gives way to the warm hues of autumn, when the chromatic fantasies of the forest convey feelings that are hard to capture in ink, ending with the pure, dazzling white of the snow. A place to visit in every season: to be enjoyed in winter with winter sports, but also in summer, with hikes and climbs on the rock faces, in autumn, in search of mushrooms and truffles, and in spring, to witness the miracle of Nature repeating itself. The village of firs, but also of stone, where the eternal and immutable elements, the rocks, mingle with the finite nature of human life and culture and become artefacts, works of art, unique pieces of inert matter that take on life and form under the skilled hands of the “pescolano” stonemason. A way, perhaps, of mastering Nature while living in respectful symbiosis with it, shaping the rock and fashioning tools and implements from the very material of the spur overlooking the Sangro on which the ancestors chose to build the first houses of Pescopennataro.
