The village of Castelluccio, in Italy's Umbria region, sits about three hours from Rome. Perched high on a grassy hill, it's known for providing stunning views over the Piano Grande, a valley that comes to life with thousands of tiny red, white, and purple flowers every spring (there's even a festival that celebrates the superbloom every summer). It's the perfect place to soak up fresh mountain air while indulging in the region's notable pecorino cheese.
