🏢 About the local organisation
The Legambiente Geo A.P.S. association was born in Atessa in 1989 thanks to the enthusiasm and the care of a group of young volunteers. Since 30 years our association deals with the improvement of the environmental and cultural quality in our area in order to satisfy the need of participation, cohesiveness, knowledge and identity of people. During the last years we have fighted against waste trade, land consumption, for the Sangro river safeguard and the Val di Sangro evironmental quality. Thanks to our devouted and determined work, we set up the SIC Monte Pallano and Lecceta d\' Isca d\' Archi area. It is a place where environmental and archaeoligical excellences coexist. Legambiente, in this area, manages Casanatura Fontecampana center, a place where people of any age can meet each other and share their love for nature and environment and broaden their knowledges about them through various activities. Since 2017, tanks to volunteers, Legambiente runs the recycling center in Atessa.

📍 About the location
The area of Monte Pallano and Lecceta d’Isca d’Archi is full of charm, thanks to its natural and archaeological treasures. Its strategic position and the presence of water sources have favored the settlement of man in the area: as evidenced by the remains of the settlement of the ancient Pallanum and the imposing Megalithic Walls, traces of human presence from the Palaeolithic to the Neolithic and to the Hellenistic-Roman period have been found by archaeologist.
