The tourists in the provinces of Tuscia and Sabina are mostly Italian (1.3 million presences in the Viterbo area and only 59 thousand in the Rieti area), Lazio itself is the starting region in first place (602 thousand in the Viterbo area and 88 thousand in the Rieti area). For both provinces, the percentage of foreigners on the total presence is around 19%.

The province of Rieti – and Sabina in particular – is in the penultimate national place for tourist presences (315,000 in the last six years); the situation in Tuscia and the Lazio Maremma is just a little better, but with reference to some areas closer to Rome, or to the sea.

The still critical question of the accessibility of the internal area of Tuscia in Viterbo remains – mainly characterized by proximity tourism, especially in summer, linked to the presence of lakes (Vico in our case) and the countryside. The ongoing economic reconversion towards tourism, despite various attempts, lacks a real territorial marketing operation with the creation of a network of the main stakeholders. Cultural services, accommodation and catering services are currently applying on the international market in no particular order (Report “Arrivi turistici”, Regione Lazio, 2020).
