This part of the route of the cycle/pedestrian path of the Via Verde Costa dei Trabocchi which lies in the territory of San Salvo Marina represents the southern Abruzzo section of the Adriatica cycle path, Bicitalia network number 6. The cycle path in the two-way direction was resined and then painted green and the same in the pedestrian section, but in reality it had to be made in blue to distinguish it from the cycle path and to make it clear to cyclists and pedestrians where to pass within a mixed pedestrian and cycle path and to avoid unnecessary accidents linked to the lack of chromatic distinction of the two sections.

Punta Aderci promontory. From this uncontaminated place, the panorama is truly splendid with a 360° view of the entire coast and the fascinating cliffs.

Part of the Trabocchi Cycle Path is located inside the Nature Reserve... the paths are dirt!

It is located along the "Costa dei Trabocchi" cycle path but it is a dirt road that is also challenging at times... for Sunday customers.
