About Frantoi Aperti

For over a month, between October and November, Umbria's oil mills and villages open their doors for Frantoi Aperti, the flagship event for oil tourism in Italy. From the oil capital Trevi, in the province of Perugia, to many other towns in the olive-growing belt, it's the season for olive harvesting and first pressing: visits to oil mills, tastings of Umbria DOP extra virgin olive oil, trekking among centuries-old olive trees, markets of typical products, and village festivals liven up the autumn weekends.

When oil becomes a widespread celebration

Frantoi Aperti in Umbria is the major event that celebrates extra virgin olive oil in the region every autumn, during the olive harvest and first pressing season. It is one of the most symbolic events for oil tourism in Italy: for several weeks, spread over multiple weekends, oil mills open their doors to visitors to showcase the processing of freshly pressed oil.

Trevi and the olive-growing belt

Trevi, in the province of Perugia, is one of Umbria's oil capitals and a focal point of the event, with its Festivol event and local oil mills. However, the initiative involves the entire olive-growing belt that winds along Umbria's hilly slopes, touching numerous villages famous for their Umbria DOP oil.

Experiences among the olive trees

The program includes visits to oil mills with tastings of new oil, exhibition markets of typical products, trekking and walks among centuries-old olive trees, e-bike tours, routes to discover monumental olive trees, and village festivals. Promoted by the Strada dell'Olio DOP Umbria (Umbria DOP Oil Route), Frantoi Aperti is the ideal opportunity to experience Umbria's olive landscape at its most authentic time of year.
