Velletri is a working town rather than a view, and what it has is what grows around it: organic farms selling at the gate, an olive mill that will show you the press, and wine from the slopes between here and the Artemisio ridge.
Above the town the woods run up to the crater rim, and there is a guiding outfit here with a calendar that goes from an easy stroll to a climb done at night. In the countryside below, the house Ugo Tognazzi built can be visited privately, kitchen included.
