Orvieto

The medieval hilltop "ghost town" of Civita di Bagnoregio, not far from Orvieto. A very steep climb but no problem for two very fit South Dakotans Orvieto, Locanda Rosati, Daytrips  The last stop on your adventure will be the Agriturismo Locanda Rosati and the nearby hill town of Orvieto.  It is only about 2 hours drive from Volterra down to Orvieto. So I recommend you stop and enjoy Orvieto before you go on to the Locanda Rosati, which is west of town.  Here is a map:  https://goo.gl/maps/gEq7mSR3pFWYhMwE6 And here is a detailed view of where you should park:  https://goo.gl/maps/pt5EC5nh3BFQop2g9 Orvieto "Scalo" refers to "Lower Orvieto." Everything you want to see is in the upper part of Orvieto, so follow the map to the large public parking lot near the end of the Funicular (Vertical railway) Pay to park here, display your ticket in the dash. Assuming you leave Volterra at 10 I would recommend you plan to stay 5 ho
