In the heart of Mt. Cucco Park

Situated in the northeastern part of Umbria, Costacciaro is a characteristic village of ancient origin built on the top of a hill in the shadow of Mt. Cucco. The municipal territory falls with the natural protected area of Mt. Cucco Regional Park, an ideal destination for lovers of outdoor sports (hiking, cave exploring and hang-gliding).

Set in the north-eastern part of Umbria on the border with the Marche region, Sigillo is a small town on the slopes of Mt. Cucco.

Located in northeastern part of the region at the border between Umbria and the Marche, Fossato di Vico rises at the foot of the Umbro-Marchigiano Apennines, within the natural protected area of Mt. Cucco Regional Park. The old center of town is at the top of a hill; the modern quarter is in the valley below.

Situated in the north west of Umbria close to the Marche border, Gualdo Tadino stands on the hill named after Sant'Angelo and is dominated by the Rocca Flea fortress. The surrounding area is of great environmental value and the town is an active manufacturing centre specialising in the production of red and gold lusterware. Because of its centuries-old ceramics tradition, Gualdo Tadino is a member of the Italian Association of Ceramics Towns with its certification mark for Artistic and Traditional Ceramics.

Nocera Umbra is situated at the top of a rocky spur from which it dominates the upper Topino river valley, along the Via Flaminia linking Foligno with Gualdo Tadino. The area's most important natural resource is its mineral waters: their therapeutic qualities have been known since the 16th century, when spas and systems for drawing and carrying the water were built.

Located in northeastern Umbria, Valfabbrica is a small town of medieval origin built on the banks and along the valley of the Chiascio River. The Assisi-Gubbio Franciscan Peace Path is a favorite for pilgrimages and nature excursions: in 1207 St. Francis traveled this route after his famous renouncement of possessions, clothes and money in the piazza in Assisi.

A journey through the places and museums where you can admire the shining Etruscan ceramics, the archaic medieval ceramics, the iridescent majolica, up to the modern masterpieces.
