The land of Umbria

Umbria is an ancient land of a thousand colours, a region with a variety of landscapes, capable of inspiring intense emotions. The territory is small and varied, a delicate and harmonious mixture of landscapes and natural environments. Oak stands and wild woods, rough gorges and docile hills give way to undulated farmlands, relaxing expanses of olive groves and coloured thickets of broom and sunflowers. The countryside is everywhere crisscrossed by slow rivers, impetuous creeks, foaming waterfalls and silent springs. It is a close-knit network of waterways, along whose shores small hamlets and towns have sprouted up, which fondly tell the story of a glorious past. To visit this land of many spirits is like entering a dimension in which art and nature, landscapes and architecture, towns and the countryside, are merged in a harmonious and perfect equilibrium. Every village is rich in history and culture and safeguards the treasures of the artistic patrimony, jealously conserving and handing down instruments and artisan skills and knowledge.

Lake Trasimeno

Lake Trasimeno, with an area of 128 Km2, is the largest body of water in Central Italy and the fourth largest Italian lake. The limpid, shallow waters of the lake are a precious habitat for a rich and numerous ichthyic fauna. The beauty of the colourful shores of the lake is changeable: there are stands of cane, ancient olive orchards, woods and wetlands, creating an extremely suggestive natural scenery.

Tourist centres dot the shores, while ancient castles and villages guard the memory of bygone times. Following various itineraries, it is possible to immerge oneself in the undulated countryside, listen to the silence of the woods and get lost in the tenuous colours of the landscape, experiencing enchanting moments of relaxation.
The well equipped and numerous sports facilities and structures make the area of the lake an ideal oasis, even for the most active guests. Along with the typical aquatic sports of lake areas, there are facilities for horseback riding, golf, soccer, tennis, archery and suggestive bicycle excursions.
