This guided tour starts at Umberto Square I (Piazza Umberto I). It is easy to get to Oriolo by the regional train line FL3, which connects to most local train stations (e.g. Tiburtina, Saint Peters, Trastevere).
Getting to the square is easy:
Exit the train station, once the train has left the station you can use dedicated path to cross the tracks. Once outside the station, you should see a grocery store called ""Conad"" (there is also a bar inside) on the opposite side of the main street.
Turn left and walk on the sidewalk for about 6 minutes, until you get to a square called Piazza Claudia (there are several coffee bars, including Roxy and Bar 13C).
The meeting point will be at the center of the square, with floor tiling that looks like a compass rose.
Your hiking experience is confirmed 🙌
I'm looking forward to have you on my hike!
