ACCOMODATION IN L`AQUILA

Finally the places of accomodation for the l´Aquila session got decided and booked. We are happy to have this settled, as accomodation is still a problematic issue in l´Aquila due to earthquake damages (there are almost no hostels or hotels available in town). - For the two weeks of the workshop there will two different locations, corresponding the overall workshop programme.

WEEK 1
Week 1 is mainly about getting around l´Aquila on daytrips. For this time we will stay in S. Stefano di Sessanio, a fortified village high-up in the mountains approx. 20km from l´Aquila. The place is highly exceptional in terms of architecture, landscape, and atmosphere. We will stay on the Gran Sasso Camping Site (tel. 334 900 2230) which is right beside the village. As participants are expected to arrive perhaps earlier, reservations were made from 28th until September 4th. Participants ought to bring sleeping bags, and if possible, tents. Otherwise tents can be provided which must be shared by two persons. However, if someone owns a tent already, and wants to have more legspace, privacy, and flexibility, then bringing a private tent is a good option.



Name: Gran Sasso Camping
Booked for: Aug 28 - Sept 4
Adress: Camping Gran Sasso, Località Collicello, S.Stefano di Sessanio (AQ)

WEEK 2
Week 2 will be dedicated to project work on the Bagno-site. Therefore we will move to a Bed & Breakfast "On the Road" in the village Paganica, close to Bagno and the center of l´Aquila. The hostel consists of bedrooms-containers (4-5 persons) with showers, and a small restaurant. Due to its "highway"-style, this place is less atmospheric than S. Stefano, but certainly more practical in terms of accomodation, eating, and reaching Bagno site. Final overnight stay will be Saturday 11th to Sunday 12th.
