A realm where spiritual inspirations, artistic heritage, and natural wonders harmoniously intertwine.Umbria doesn’t border another country or the sea and this has helped to keep many of Italy’s traditions alive here. It’s a stunningly beautiful region, beloved for its unspoiled landscapes and abundant birdlife. There are forests to visit and the Marmore Waterfall, one of the tallest in Europe.

Norcia and The Sibillini Mountain National Park
Sibillini Mountain National Park is a green paradise perfect for hiking, mule treks, rafting and canyoning. Here mountains rise above 2000 metres of altitude and along the rivers and valleys are over 1800 species of plants and flowers, including the Apennine edelweiss, bearberry, and hornbeam. It’s a land that’s home to the Karst grottoes and to wolves, porcupines and wildcats.
