Hi all. I’d like to reserve a few train tickets for my upcoming trip, but when I put the places (Orvieto and Chiusi are two) into trenitalias’s app it shows more than one name. I think there is only one station in each place, but I want to be sure I get it right, can someone help? I tried googling the answer in a few different ways, but then I get a whole different name. There must be an easier way, right?
Thank you in advance!
Orvieto Centro
Chiusi-Chianciano Terme
The railway station is Orvieto. If you put Orvieto centro, it adds what looks like a five minutes service up the hill to the center named "Orvieto link"; if you look on google you see that "Orvieto link" actually it is a funicular run, but with the funicular ticket added to the railway ticket.
Thanks so much!
yes, Orvieto is the train station, the city is up a steep hill right next to the station. You can walk up if you have the grunt, you can take a city bus up to just in front of the (magnificent) cathedral, or the funicular which then leaves you with some walking until the cathedral, up hill, but much less steep.
So many choices!! That's why you find so many names...
If you buy a ticket to Orvieto Centro, it includes the cost of a bus ticket up the hill. You'll see the price is a euro or two higher than the price to Orvieto.
