Mountain Community Sirentina is located in the Region of Abruzzo, in the province of Aquila, close to the cities of Avezzano, Sulmona and Aquila; it expands to the North-East of Sirente Mountain (2.340 meters) and its area covers about 425 square km. It is a local government body that, through the establishment of partnerships, is engaged in the achievement of municipal functions as well as in the supply of fundamental services to local populations for a better execution of the duties assigned to local governments under a profile of efficiency, efficacy, inexpensiveness and adherence to social and territorial conditions.

Our role in the SY_CULTour project:
