Mooie groene streek. Wel veel stijgen en dalen, ook in de steden. Bronnen van Clitunno: mooi waterlandschap met kleine bronnen helder water. Marmore-waterval: zeer mooi bij volle benutting. Hou er rekening mee dar deze waterval slechts enkele uren per dag in zijn volle pracht is. Spoleto: echte Italiaanse stad met aquaduct en Dom
