Campello sul Clituunno, Umbria

Campello sul Clitunno, Umbria
The beautiful, tranquil waters at Campello sul Clitunno, famous for having inspired Lord Byron...

The spring rises here and feeds the river Clitunno.

Mother and babies paddling along...

All along the backwaters, through the rushes tall...

And there would have to be a beautiful swan!

About 4 miles from Trevi, it makes sense to visit both places in one day.  We had a picnic under the trees by the water's edge on table and benches provided.  Very relaxing and peaceful even if it has become a bit touristy.  You can imagine why Byron was inspired to write some of his poetry here.

Stay at Villa Bastiola and visit Trevi and Campello in just under an hour's drive.
