Gubbio sits at 522 metres on the lower slopes of Monte Ingino in Umbria, which gives it a cooler, sharper climate than the valley towns below. The town averages 2.7°C in January and 21.6°C in July, with about 919mm of rain spread across the year. November is the wettest month at 112mm, while July is the driest at 41mm. Snow falls most winters, and the hilltop position means evenings stay cool even in summer, so pack a light layer from June to August. For the ideal dates to come, see our best time to visit Gubbio guide.
