Bagnoregio Things To Do

The first sighting of the stunning Italian hill town of Bagnoregio is guaranteed to take the breath away. This traffic free town is a definite step back in time and the ancient stone walls hold many surprises. Exploring the village with its ancient cellars, Etruscan caves and churches will be one of the many highlights of a holiday in Bagnoregio. The views from the hilltop village of the surrounding countryside will be an unforgettable sight.

 

Day trips from Bagnoregio should include the nearby medieval city of Viterbo that dates back to the 11^th century. Viterbo holds a treasure trove of museums, monuments, galleries and natural sights. It also contains some fantastic dining options and a wide selection of bars and nightclubs. Orvieto is another hill town located between Florence and Rome and sits majestically upon volcanic rock. Again, there are many sites to explore including medieval caves and primitive quarries.

 

Lake Vico and Lake Bolensa are the perfect spots to spend the day swimming, boating and fishing. Italian scenery does not come better than this and there are even beaches to stretch out on and relax in the hot Italian sunshine. These are popular locations for picnics in the sun or to visit before stopping off at one of the many local restaurants in the area. Land based sports are also popular and there are very good golf courses available in the Viterbo area.

 

Bagnoregio restaurants include many al fresco dining options and the warm Italian climate is perfect for sitting on the terraces while enjoying the best cuisine in Italy. There are many pizzerias and cafes in Bagnoregio, but nearby Viterbo does offer a wider range of Italian and international restaurants. Don’t forget to sample some of the delicious local wines.
