Enjoy a 'heady' Umbria holiday at the rocky pyramid of Roccaporena
According to Perugia Online, the annual Festa delle Rose e delle Rite on June 22nd is the perfect time to discover the little area's impressive natural landscape, which is a secret for many people.
Roccaporena, which stands on a precipitous mountain, has been inhabited for thousands of years and is now primarily a place of pilgrimage for worshippers of St Rita.
The views of the surrounding areas are staggering and it is a place of rare natural beauty.
Roccaporena is home to a variety of bird life, while salmon swim in water that runs through canyon-like gorges there, the newspaper says.
It is locations like this that help give Umbria its reputation as one of the most beautiful of Italy's regions, with its countryside that is ripe for exploring.
