Valtiberina – Umbria: where the Renaissance meets nature. The Umbrian Tiber Valley, located in the extreme north-east of the region, is a wide and bright valley crossed by the Tiber River, on the border with Tuscany. It is a territory suspended between hilly landscapes, villages of art and peasant traditions, also known as 'the Valley of the Painters' for being the birthplace of Piero della Francesca and inspiring centuries of beauty. A perfect destination for those who love culture, quiet and authentic flavors. 🎨 Art, history and author villages: Cities such as Città di Castello, Monte Santa Maria Tiberina and San Giustino hold treasures of Renaissance art, stately palaces and unique museums. Walking through these places means getting in touch with centuries of history and creativity. 👉 Tip: Visit the Palazzo Vitelli alla Cannoniera and the Alberto Burri Museum in Città di Castello: a truly unique dialogue between ancient and contemporary art. 🌳 Nature, silence and landscapes to paint: The hills of the Tiber Valley are perfect for trekking, biking and hiking. The paths lead through olive groves, woods, castles and farmhouses, with panoramic views of the Tiber and the Apennine ridges. A landscape that invites contemplation and slowness. 👉 Tip: Follow the Via di Francesco or one of the circular routes between Lippiano, Petrelle and Monte Santa Maria Tiberina. 🍷 Robust flavours and peasant tradition: The cuisine of the Tiber Valley is straightforward and generous. Grilled Chianina, spelt soup, artisanal sausages, extra virgin olive oil and wines from the hills accompany every season. The local markets and festivals tell of the deep bond with the land. 👉 Tip: In October, take part in the White Truffle Exhibition in Città di Castello: a journey into the scents and flavours of the valley. 🧘 ♀️ A valley for slow and conscious tourism: In the Tiber Valley everything invites you to slow down: stone farmhouses, silent villages, panoramas that change with the light. A place to regenerate, walk, breathe, eat well and discover forgotten stories. 👉 Tip: Book a stay in a farmhouse surrounded by greenery: in the evening, at sunset, the valley is colored with gold and silence. The Umbrian Tiber Valley is a palette of colors, flavors and memories. A land that tastes of art, quiet and authenticity.
