Palazzo Via del Ponte, 47b/51, 02013, Antrodoco

The cluster is in the upper Velino valley at the foot of the central Apennines, with Monte Giano and the mountains around Antrodoco and Cittaducale within the local landscape. The Velino river runs through the area. Much of the surrounding mountain country falls within the Monti della Laga and Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park area to the north-east, and the reatine mountain system continues south toward Monte Terminillo. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Terminillo, roughly 35–45 minutes by road depending on the access point. Rieti is the nearest town of size, with full services and a historic centre. The area is known as a passage between the Rieti basin and the Abruzzo interior, with gorges and narrow valley sections around Antrodoco.
