How to arrive

Whether you live in Umbria, another Italian region or abroad, you can get to the GNU by various means of transport:

By plane

The airport of Umbria – Perugia ‘San Francesco d’Assisi’ is located in S. Egidio, halfway between Perugia and Assisi. It is connected to about 15 Italian and European cities. From here you can take the A.C.A.P. shuttle bus to Perugia, which also stops in the central Piazza Italia.

If, on the other hand, you arrive at Rome’s Fiumicino airport, you can take an Autolinee Sulga bus to Piazza Partigiani in Perugia.

By car

You can use the Saba car parks with walkways or escalators: you can find them at the Mercato Coperto, Briglie di Braccio, Piazza Partigiani, Viale Pellini and Piazzale Europa.
You can also park at Pian di Massiano and reach the Pincetto terminal with the Minimetrò.

By train

From Fontivegge station you can take the city bus and get off at Piazza Italia or the Minimetrò to the Pincetto terminal.
