L Aquila City Car Hire

L'Aquila sits high in the Apennines in the heart of Abruzzo, and from here it's easy to explore one of Italy's most spectacular mountain regions. Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park is just 20–30 minutes' drive away, where Italy's highest peak south of the Alps rises to almost 2,900 meters. Along roads SS17 and SS80, dramatic valleys and picturesque mountain villages open up, such as Santo Stefano di Sessanio, a medieval stone tower that feels forgotten by time.

To the east toward the Adriatic coast is just over an hour's drive via the A24 motorway, and the cities of Pescara and Giulianova offer fine beaches. L'Aquila itself is worth your time, with its well-preserved Baroque church Santa Maria di Collemaggio and the famous fountain with 99 spouts that tells the city's history.

We compare prices from all major providers at Province of L'Aquila Center so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
