There are plenty of good reasons why Saint Francis was happy to live in Umbria. The beautiful landscape, medieval towns and scenic villages, the vast olive groves and vineyards all make a perfect frame for a great bike tour. Less busy than Tuscany, you can ride and enjoy authentic country life. To visit Assisi is a must, but Orvieto and Lake Trasimeno are also worth visiting. And we would like to show you our Sibylline Mountains, as well as the Spoleto and Nera valleys. Try Umbrian snack food like the “torta al testo” and traditional pasta dishes, and enjoy exquisite wines like Sagrantino and Orvieto Classico. No reason for envy: Umbria has nothing to fear from Tuscany!
We suggest spending 5 to 7 days discovering Umbria. You can also choose to visit the best of Tuscany and Umbria in 7 days.
