Tranquil Lake Trasimeno near Perugia. There are many hill top medieval towns in Umbria. Deruta, Umbria, the home of hand painted pottery. Another ancient town in Umbria. Take time to explore. Beautiful, medieval Todi waits for you.

 Directions from Perugia. 

>Follow the E45 South to the exit for Todi - approximately 20 minutes South of Perugia.
>At the bottom of the exit ramp turn left and proceed through the centre of the small town of Ponte Rio.
>As you leave the town you will go over a - fairly large but clear - hump-backed bridge. Immediately over the bridge take the right turn up a long straight, steep hill.
>At the top of the hill, in front of the 'Porta Perugia Gate' turn left and follow the road around the walls of Todi.
>At the junction - with the Porta Romana Gate on your right - carry straight on and continue to follow the walls of Todi
>After 700 metres you will see a Newspaper Kiosk on the left; turn left immediately after the kiosk down a long straight, steep hill.
>At the bottom of the hill turn right and follow the road; through the village of Vasciano and past the village of Montenero.
>About 1 kilometres after Montenero you will pass the restaurant "IROSSI".
>Take the first turning right - poorly marked Pesciano - after the restaurant.
>Take this road and follow it for about 2 kilometres and you will start climbing the hill up to the village of Pesciano.
>About 500 metres before getting to the village there is a hairpin bend, marked "Tornante", just after the Pesciano sign on the crown of the  hairpin bend there is a white (unsurfaced) road off to the left where you will see a wooden sign on a tree showing the way to Voc. Ortali.
>Take this road and after about 700 metres, and negotiating a sharp descent, you will see Villa Arnata on your left-hand side.
