A short guide to discovering seven charming hilltop towns and villages in the central Lazio region of Italy and how to travel there on day trips from Rome.
Interrail through Italy - a country which excites, enthuses and entices STEEPED in history and beauty in equal measure, you can easily get as lost in the cultural riches of Italy’s architecture as you can its stunning landscapes and beaches. Whether it’s the art cities of Florence, Venice and Rome, or the coastal delights of the Cinque Terre and Amalfi regions, Italy has it all. And with such a variety of scenery at its disposal, it is easy to see why the country is one of the most popular destinations for Interrail travellers. It was the variety that lured my girlfriend and I into spending our entire 14 day holiday here, rather than what was initially meant to be a multi-country trip. The difficult part is trying to decide on which cities to leave out. The great thing about Italy it that the country has a good network of Intercity and regional train services, as well as new high-speed Le Frecce trains, making it blissfully easy to navigate to most cities and towns.
