umbria italy

Montefalco can be seen from anywhere in the Umbrian Valley. Looking towards the southern hills, it descends towards the north, slowly sloping towards the southwest. From the center of the plain, its green stands out in the summer and the silver of the olives in the winter. From Montefalco, truly a "balcony", one can enjoy a 360° view of the entire valley. Montefalco is 200 km from Florence and 150 km from Rome.
