Neighbourhood overview
Umbria is called the green heart of Italy. An appropriate name when you consider the hills covered with forests and the fields full of vines and olive trees. But Umbria is more than just green. Fields full of yellow flowering lentil plants, red poppy fields, blue lakes, rivers and mountain streams. And in the fall, of course, the beautiful red, orange and brown colours of the trees. Umbria has no fewer than eight national parks and although it is not on the sea, it does have a lot of water. Lake Trasimeno, the largest lake in central Italy, the river Tiber and of course the largest waterfalls in Italy, Cascate delle Marmore. This overwhelming natural beauty and the favorable weather conditions make this region very suitable for outdoor activities. In addition to walking and cycling, you can also go rafting, windsurfing, horse riding and hang gliding. The medieval towns and villages with monasteries and churches bring the rich cultural history of Umbria to life. You should not miss a number of cities in the area during your stay at Borgo Castello Panicaglia. Visit beautiful Perugia, Assisi, Orvieto, Norcia and Spoleto. In addition, Umbria is fantastic for walkers, cyclists and families with children.
