The Autostrada A25 or Strada dei Parchi ("Parks Motorway") is an autostrada (Italian for "motorway") 114 kilometres (71 mi) long in Italy mostly located in the region of Abruzzo connecting the Torano interchange (where it splits from the Autostrada A24) to Pescara and Autostrada A14, in the Adriatic coast. The A25 takes its name "Parks Motorway" from the Maiella National Park, the Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park and the Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park, all served and connected to the national motorway system by it. It is part of the E80 European route.
The A25 splits from the A24 at the border with the region of Lazio at the Svincolo direzionale Torano (Torano interchange). It then crosses the Fucine Plain and the Marsica through the Abruzzese Apennines up to the valley of the river Pescara, where at the Adriatic Coast finally merges into Autostrada A14 near Pescara. The A25 is 114 kilometres (71 mi) long with two service stations near each end about 80 kilometres (50 mi) apart. Together with Autostrada A24 the motorway is currently managed by the private company Strada dei Parchi S.p.A.
