Via Francigena in Umbria (Assisi to Spoleto)
Umbria – The green heart of Italy, is the only landlocked region that neither borders the sea nor other countries. Probably this isolation was keeping away the foreign influences and many of the archaic traditions have survived until now. This is an independent hiking journey to remember, full of splendid views, harmony and the pleasure of the delicious home-made pasta and fragrant wine! Walk through dense forests, lush green valleys contrasting with the vivid colors of the vineyards and olive groves. Dramatically perched on the hills, you will be always followed by the silhouettes of the beautiful medieval towns. They are so perfectly preserved that it seems the time has stood still! If you want to dive into the atmosphere, take a self-guided walking adventure to this unique part of Italy! Umbria is a perfect destination to rediscover yourself!
