Niccone Valley:
Nestled amidst the captivating landscapes of central Italy, the Niccone Valley serves as an idyllic gateway to explore the enchanting hill towns of both Umbria and Tuscany. Positioned roughly midway between the cultural hubs of Rome and Florence, and just north of the tranquil Lake Trasimeno, it offers easy access to a plethora of historic marvels.
From the timeless allure of Cortona to the medieval charm of Gubbio, from the artistic treasures of Perugia to the spiritual ambiance of Assisi and beyond, the Niccone Valley serves as a perfect base for immersing oneself in the rich tapestry of Italian history and culture. Deruta’s renowned ceramics, Montefalco’s esteemed wines, and the architectural wonders of Todi and Montepulciano are all within easy reach.
Named after the gentle stream that meanders through its heart, eventually merging with the Tiber River near Umbertide, the Niccone Valley straddles the border between Umbria and Tuscany. Its picturesque landscape is punctuated by the quaint towns of Lisciano Niccone and plain Niccone in Umbria, with a small section extending from Mercatale to La Mita nestled in Tuscany. A scenic country road, route 416, winds its way through the valley, mirroring the course of the stream.
Steeped in history, the valley bears witness to its strategic importance through the centuries, as evidenced by the imposing castles that crown the hilltops, standing sentinel from both sides of the border. Today, the fertile plains are adorned with a patchwork of crops, including winter wheat, sunflowers, maize, tobacco, alfalfa, and vegetables. Verdant vineyards and silvery olive groves grace the slopes, while lush forests clothe the surrounding hills in myriad shades of green.
Life in the Niccone Valley remains closely intertwined with the rhythms of nature, as farmers tend to their fields and orchards, while towns along the road offer essential supplies and local delights.
