Holiday rental in the historic centre of Preci (with pool): Casa Preci

The Monti Sibillini National Park is famous for its overwhelmingly rich flowers, mountains where one can hike a life time without ever getting bored, excellent food and many lovely little towns that seem to take a rest halfway up a steep hill, or sleep in a protected rounding of a mountain. Preci is one of those small miracles, a lively town with a few shops, several bars and some good restaurants. A stay in Casa Preci, a spacious house in the centre of the old Preci, offers a taste of the nice and real Italian atmosphere, from a modern and comfortable holiday home. Excellent base for walking in the Monti Sibillini National Park. Description of some circular walks one can hike from the holiday house, are below.
