Slide Lake Sangro

Slide Lake Sangro is the wakeboard spot at The Village Chalet — the former Parco del Sangro — in Castel di Sangro, in the heart of the Abruzzo Apennines. Riding happens on the calm water of the village’s artificial lake, with green hills around you and the wider resort close at hand, so a session here feels like sport inside a mountain holiday rather than a standalone cable club. Everyone can try wakeboarding with instructor guidance, whether it is your first time on a board or you are back to sharpen your riding. Lessons include equipment, and courses are offered for both beginners and more experienced riders who want focused time on the water. Babylon Wake House bar sits right by the lake for sunset aperitivi, afternoon drinks, and cooldown time between runs. When you unclip, the village lawns and barbecue areas are there for a slow afternoon — Abruzzo wake culture folded into a family resort on the lake.
