Far from the congested roads of other regions of Italy, Umbria is still preserved from mass tourism. Leaving the comfort of your prestigious rental villa, crisscross the itineraries that emerge between the hills and which cross the mountainous landscapes. Among the most beautiful scenery to explore, the waterfalls of the Marmore, located not far from the town of Terni, unveil a magical spectacle. At the turn of a road, medieval villages appear, like Assisi and Gubbio. On the shores of Lake Trasimeno, there are a few villages and lonely corners where you can relax and enjoy the sun and idyllic landscapes.
The green surroundings of Umbria, associated with the numerous rivers and lakes, make it a paradise for the practice of nautical activities. Between a peaceful kayak getaway on the calm waters of a body of water and the thrills guaranteed by rafting, make your choice. The Corno River offers the best spots for the practice of this sport. If you prefer cycling, the alternation of flat roads and small climbs that cross the fields, flowering meadows and forests are a delight to discover. If you prefer mountain biking, there is a route not far from the medieval village of Narni designed to offer challenge to enthusiasts while allowing beginners to have fun.
Like all regions of Italy, Umbria promises its visitors an unforgettable culinary experience. The dishes are simple, witnesses of a preserved rural character, and bring flavours that will not fail to conquer all the palates. The ciriole, a typical tagliatelle variety, must be discovered. The same goes for the lentil soup which derives its exquisite taste from the virgin olive oil used for its manufacture. In season, the truffle also marks its presence in dishes. There are now many schools to teach you how to exalt the terroir of Umbria.
