A transatlantic liner on the hills: the mysterious "Ship of Genga"
Hidden among the woods and cultivated hills of the Marche Apennines is one of Italy's most surreal sights. Driving along the road connecting Sassoferrato to Genga, looking up towards the hamlet of Osteria di Colleponi, you're struck by an optical illusion that's almost unbelievable: a cruise ship beached in the green hills. It's not […]
Forse il mio passo preferito
Yes folks, this is probably my favourite pass and it's in Lombardy. It divides Valfurva from Val Camonica and at 2,652 metres, it's also one of the highest passes in Lombardy. I'm obviously talking about the Gavia Pass, which connects Ponte di Legno to Santa Caterina Valfurva with a total […]
The last Umbrian sunset
Yes folks, like all things, even the most beautiful ones come to an end sooner or later. A week has already passed, seven days spent here in the beautiful Umbrian hills, among vineyards, mountains, medieval villages and lots, lots of heat. And as always when you have a wonderful holiday, you have to deal with conflicting feelings […]
Monte Subasio
Today, in search of cool air, we're heading to Mount Subasio, above the city of Assisi. It's a simple white road, but it offers a truly beautiful panorama despite its 1,275 metres altitude. We're stopping at the Agriturismo Le Mandrie di San Paolo, to cool off, as it's still 33°C in the city today.
The Plain of Wonders: Castelluccio di Norcia
Waking up to a view that looks hand-painted. 🎨✨ The Piano di Castelluccio di Norcia is not just a place, it's a feeling: an immense expanse where the earth meets the sky, embraced by the peaks of the Sibillini Mountains. Each season offers a different palette of colours, an ancient silence, and that rare feeling of […]
His Majesty the Gran Sasso d'Italia
It must be said, we in Northern Italy, living close to the Alps, one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the world, are used to hearing about peaks of 4,000 metres or perhaps more. This year I came to discover the King of the Apennines, the Gran Sasso d'Italia, which at its highest point, the so-called […]

BREATHTAKING! Is it the most beautiful road ever travelled?
The Calanche di Piana are one of those places that put you in your place and leave you breathless. Driving along these ribbons of asphalt carved into the red rock, suspended between the imposing rock faces and the deep blue of the Mediterranean, is a pure, primitive, almost mystical experience. Every curve offers a new glimpse, a contrast of colours so […]
