I had known the archaeological area since university, quite a few years ago, but I had never been back.
In those days the monuments stood among the vegetation and it was not easy to visit them.
I returned for the 2024 edition of the "Ocriculum Ad 168" event which takes place every year with events, costume re-enactments, guided tours.
The area, about whose importance and value there is little to say, is very well kept, cared for and easily accessible.
I also discovered parts that I hadn't seen at the time.
If I were a child I would have gone crazy seeing the reconstructions of gladiator fights, the stands on life in the times of the Roman Empire, everything that today goes by the name of "Experimental Archaeology".
As an adult I appreciated the opportunity to visit the main monuments along comfortable paths, with a competent guide, with clear and explanatory signs.
I suggest googling "Ocriculum Ad 168" for future editions and, in any case, visiting the area when there is an opportunity.

The remains of the ancient Otricoli (thermal baths, theater, amphitheater, public fountain, tombs and more) are of considerable interest and are also well maintained. We had a pleasant guided tour with a very prepared girl who accompanied us for a fairly easy walk; only the last stretch to get to the small antiquarium is uphill and was made more challenging by the heat. Guide Recommendation because you have a much more complete understanding of the place and everything you see acquires meaning. The cost is 7 euros for the duration of a couple of hours. At the entrance of the park there is a bar with services. A place not too well known that deserves to be more frequented.

We were part of a large group of international friends (speaking English, French, Italian and Spanish) so it was a challenge to make it work, but Giacomo did his best! We learned tons about this oil trading town and its long history and were very pleased to have been able to get up close and personal with the ruins. I would suggest bringing water as it was extremely hot when we went (and a 3 hour tour to boot) and we were without water. Make sure to take a guided tour and enjoy!

Plenty of information boards in English to guide you, not one but two amphitheatres and a cafe and toilets at the entrance.

This is just the place to take any budding young archaeologist, or to make much older versions wish they had joined that profession years ago. A wonderful ruin thatt aches to be further explored. Don’t miss it if you are Umbria!

First of all this, is an extensive site in great condition for Italy. We happened to go on an event weekend which I would recommend. It appears most if not all of these are 3 day events. Read the brochures and determine which day you rally want to go. Once you get inside the site (5E) very little in the way of food/refreshments to offer. A cafe/bar is in the parking lot outside the venue.

A short ride just down the road out of Otricoli, over looking the upper Tiber River. you will find the most amazing Roman ruins. They are the product of, judging from the importance of the ruins, what was a very large Roman town, built upon presumably an Etruscan town. There is a forum and a theatre and other stone ruins clearly evident and very approachable. They are a short walk from the car park and snack bar and are free of charge. What a treat for Romanophiles!

The Parco is very well run and kept. It's a small gem that is not so well known, but deserves a visit!

It's already the second time I've been there and I can't wait to go back perhaps with my mountain bike for a nice tour. Recommended for everyone even with small children. Very well kept park.

contatta il centro assistenza ma non ti aspettare chi sa quale risposta. Io ho una recensione 'sospesa' dal 2014, a dicembre festeggia due anni, e nonostante le continue segnalazioni mi hanno invitato gentilmente a non tampinarli perché 'ci vuole tempo' :D
