Terni the City of Love and Steel

Do you only have one day to visit Terni? We’ll give you more than one reason to come back!

Morning: Art, history and flavors

Start your day with a stroll through the historic center of Terni. Explore Corso Tacito, among shops and cafes, and stop at the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, an architectural jewel that combines history and beauty.

Continue to the Basilica of San Valentino, the patron saint of lovers. It’s a perfect place to discover a romantic and spiritual side of the city. Touch the tomb of the saint to bring home some luck in love.

Stop at a typical trattoria and let yourself be won over by the flavors of Terni. Try the ciriole alla ternana, similar to strangozzi, they are seasoned with a simple sauce of garlic, oil, tomato and chili pepper., a game dish or a soup of lentils from Castelluccio.

Never end the meal without tasting the dessert symbol of Terni, the Pampepato! A mix of dried fruit (walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts), honey, chocolate, cinnamon and pepper, baked in the oven.

Afternoon: Nature and Wonder

After lunch, head to the incredible Marmore Falls, one of the most exciting natural spectacles in Italy. Walk along the paths that lead to unique panoramic points and enjoy the spectacle of the waters plunging from 165 meters. Let yourself be enveloped by the magic of the sprays and, if you’re lucky, maybe even spot a rainbow. Check the opening times of the water so as not to miss the wow effect!

Evening: Relax and magical sunset

Conclude the day with a visit to Lago di Piediluco, a few kilometers from the waterfalls. This enchanted lake is perfect for relaxing and admiring a fairytale sunset. You can rent a boat or simply walk along the banks, immersed in tranquility. Treat yourself to dinner in a small restaurant on the shores of the lake. Try local fish dishes, such as royal perch, or a pizza accompanied by a good glass of wine. The reflection of the lake at dusk will be the icing on the cake of an unforgettable day.
