Monteluco di Spoleto is rich in natural beauty but also in history and mysticism. In fact, a small and anciet Franciscan monastery is situated next to the Sacred Wood. The wood is a splendid place where you can walk, immersed in total tranquillity under the shade of trees which are hundreds of years old. You can also view splendid panoramas of the Spoleto valley. There are numerous possibilities to take excursions thanks to the network of trails which give access to many interesting naturalistic points in the area.

Distance from Spoleto: 8 km.

La Cascata delle Marmore (Marmore Falls) with its dazzling beauty, is a roaring column of water which pours over three different points in succession, covering a total height of 165 meters and shrouding the luxuriant vegetation in a cloud of white mist!
The thanks for this breathtaking scene that visitors behold is due to the work of man, which took place over 2,000 years ago during the Roman era. The falls were created by channeling the waters of the Velino river and making them cascade into the Nera river.

Distance from Spoleto: 20 km.

The natural springs have created a mirror-like body of water with a perimeter slightly less than 400 meters, with a surface of nearly 10,000 square meters. In this small lake live numerous species of vegetation which contribute to the characteristics for which Clitunno Springs is famous. Mosses, rushes ,    mare's tail   ,   water plantai   ns, curly pond weeds, pond water starwort, forget-me-not of the marshes, and aquatic nasturtium are only a few of the plants found in the lake.

Distance from Spoleto: 12 km.

Celebrated not only for the frescoes of its churches , which are an essential reference point for learning about the Umbrian school of painting, but also for its sanctuaries which are an important part of Umbrian spirituality.

Trevi is a small gem in the green heart of Umbria: a medieval urban setting interrupted by monumental Renaissance palazzi at regular intervals. In 2003 the town was admitted to the Club of the “Borghi più belli d’Italia” (most beautiful historic towns of Italy). It is one of the founding members of the "Slow Town" association, and is rich in culture, satisfying the desires of art lovers. Its riches include those of ancient Umbria, with its museums, churches and monuments, as well as the modern and internationally known Trevi Flash Art Museum of Contemporary Art. A visit of the town on foot, in the silent and perfectly intact streets of the ancient town and the "della Piaggia" quarter, unveils observation points and bits of scenery, difficult to describe and difficult to forget, with sudden and unexpected birds-eye views of the splendid Spoleto valley below.

Distance from Spoleto: 17 km.

The historic origins of Spello are very old, which according to the most accredited historians was founded by the ancient Umbri tribes. It was named Hispellum by the Romans who made it a municipality and enrolled it in the Lemonia tribe.
It was called Colonia Julia by Caesar and later the town was named  Flavia Constantia by Constantine. Other scholars suggest that this name was given the town by Flavius Vespasian, as they consider the name Constantia to signify "worthy of honor". The Palazzo Comunale rises in the main square which demonstrates the rich beauty of Spello's memories, such as urns, busts, and inscriptions. The churches of Spello are noted for their elegant architecture. The most ancient of these, Santa Maria Maggiore is endowed with the precious paintings of Perugino and Pinturicchio.

Distanca from Spoleto: 30 km.
