Nature all around us
Bring your walking shoes and a have a picnic along the way!
Whether you are an avid hiker or a casual walker, our villa is surrounded by nature trails suitable for all. Umbria is Italy’s green heart for a reason… We are immersed in nature with hills and valleys covered in trees and meadows. Italy’s geographic center is 20 minutes away by car and along a 5 mile loop near the hilltop village of Narni, for example. Picnic tables are placed on just about all trails, so bring a snack and rest a while. Some trails pass through 2000 year old Roman ruins, while others through pristine mushroom foraging grounds. Simply beautiful especially in spring, summer and fall.
Below are only a few hikes that are easily reachable from our villa. There are so many more!
We will add new hiking maps as we create them, and you are always welcome to message us for ideas.
HIKE #1 (5 mile loop):
Passes on our road, just outside our gate for easy access
