The Marche / Abruzzo / Marche region
The region of Marche prides itself for still being well-preserved and quite unique for what it can offer and reveal. The sight of the dramatic mountain range contrasted with the rolling hills is striking. Walking in the Sibillini mountains and in the neighbouring Umbrian can be either a relaxing day out or a challenge for expert walkers. Alternatively, you might want to capture some scenes with your camera lens or on canvas. You may decide to visit the lakes, such as the Lago di Fiastra. The picturesque areas in the vicinity of the Adriatic coast are also recommended for outdoors swimming. This is an all year round place, with winter skiing in Sassotettto, near Sarnano; swimming in the warm summer weather, truffles and chestnut festivals in the autumn.
A day out visiting the numerous local markets or the piazza of Fermo, Ascoli and Macerata, with their cafes and cobble stone streets is also highly recommended. In the summer, The Sferisferio opera festival is a must for music lovers. www.sferisterio.it The Riviera del Conero, with Sirolo, and Numana is a stretch of coast of exceptional natural beauty with stunning beaches, little bays and numerous inlets.
Keen cyclists will find many panoramic-challenging rides. A refreshing swim in clear water in Lago di Fiastra; San Ginesio for an out-door pool. Several private establishments welcome outside guests to spend a day by their pool either on payment of a small fee or by having lunch or dinner in their premises. The Conero Golf Club is near Sirolo
