All Roads Lead to Rome - Day 4

Today's Bagnoregio and Orvieto adventure saw us setting out in overcast conditions by train to Alviano where the bikes waited to be mounted for a "rolling" ride to Bagnoregio from where we walked across to the ancient crumbling city of Civita di Bagnoregio.

 

 

As we set off at 3.30 for the ride to Orvieto, the rain started so we picked up the pace and cruised in to lower Orvieto where the van was waiting to collect the bikes and with our day bags of dry clothes. A short funicular ride took us up to the old town of Orvieto and then a short bus ride to the Duomo and the nearby Cantina Foresi where we were able to change before heading in to check out the magnificent Cathedral followed by a short walk around town before dinner (and wine) at the Cantina.

We trained back from Orvieto and arrived at the hotel shortly after 10. It had been a long day and quite an adventure.
