Via Nazionale, 29, Cittaducale

The cluster sits in the upper Velino valley with the Monte Terminillo group close to the west and the wider Apennine relief around the basin. The Velino river runs through this part of the province. Part of the area falls within the Monte Terminillo regional landscape protection system, and the Monti della Laga and Gran Sasso are farther east beyond the 15 km landscape radius. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Terminillo above Leonessa, roughly 25–35 km away depending on the access road. Rieti is the nearest town of size, with services, a historic centre and a railway connection toward Terni. Cittaducale itself is known as a planned small town of Angevin foundation with a regular historic layout.
