Meeting point
Scheggino
Nestled in the heart of Umbria's Valnerina valley, Scheggino is a picturesque medieval village that exudes timeless charm. Perched along the banks of the Nera River, this tranquil hamlet is characterized by its stone houses, narrow alleys, and the remnants of ancient fortifications, including a fortress tower that once served as a strategic lookout.
Fly Fishing in Umbria
Fishing takes place on the Nera and Corno rivers, two of Umbria’s most renowned fly fishing waters, known for wild brown trout and classic dry fly fishing conditions. Each fishing day runs approximately from morning to late afternoon and is guided by a professional fly fishing guide. The rivers offer clear flows, varied runs, and technical water well suited to both experienced anglers and those looking to refine their dry fly skills.
The itinerary performs best from May to September, when water conditions and insect activity are optimal. August can be more challenging due to higher temperatures and increased tourist presence.
