L'Aquila itself is dominated by the Gran Sasso behind the city, other must-sees include the hill town of Atri, the spectacular yearly bull race trough the streets of Ururi, and the archeological museum at Chieti. There are 22 ski resorts on the Teramo side of the Gran Sasso, in the Apennines. There are fine beaches and resort towns including Pescara and Vasto Marina.
