Mottagrossa Beach

From the pebbled beach of Mottagrossa up to the mouth of the Sinello River, this is one of the most beautiful, wild and isolated tracts of the Adriatic coast appear.

Overlooking Mottagrossa beach, we cross a high panoramic path (about 20 m above sea level) of around 3 km to be traced on foot or by bike, on the discovery of marine pine-woods, deep valleys and wide tracts of maquis shrubland. A unique landscape in all of the Adriatic, with vegetable essences typical of the Mediterranean such as the myrtle, the sea lily, the esparto grass, the beach dwarf broom and the dune poppy.

The reserve ends at the Sinello River delta, a little beyond the characteristic brick arcades once delimiting the old railway track.

A unique opportunity to discover the Vasto coast in all its natural beauty is offered by this track alone which can be easily passed on foot or by bike, to see not only uncontaminated nature but also the wall handiworks, sometimes monumental ones, result of the high engineering skills and mastery of the workers who built the channels, retaining walls, bridges, buttresses.
