General presentation
Orvieto, Spoleto and southern Umbria
Towns laid on promontories, cathedrals, waterfalls, old bridges and less dense Umbrian countryside.
Orvieto, Cathedral of Orvieto and Spolete give the most telling landmarks of Orvieto, Spolete and South Umbria. Together, they form a destination where urban life, heritage, countryside and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than a single uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: urban relief and scattered sites. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place
Orvieto
Orvieto offers an urban landscape in height, framed by a silence of stones and views that are gradually opening. The place encourages a sequence exploration: center, alleys, perspectives towards the countryside. A rich experience for those who love cities that are gradually expressing themselves.
Place
Cathedral of Orvieto
The Cathedral of the Cathedral Orvieto is revealed in the chain between the massive exterior and the delicate interior, where light and sculptor details take over. The most right approach passes through a slow walk and a pause on each threshold. An imposing place without ever becoming closed.
Place
Spolete
Spolete seduced by a lively centre and street alignments that made the discovery natural. Visitors felt a clear urban identity from the first few minutes, then finer as the detours took place. An interesting option to understand the Umbria by its city textures.
Place
Cascata delle Marmore
The Marmore waterfall strikes first by its visual strength, then by its listening rhythm, between water noise and panoramas. The site invites to alternate distance and proximity to read the natural machine. A precious stop for travellers who love places where nature and emotion cross.
