Turin: 4h25 from Rome by train, or fly to Caselle

Turin is 4 hours 25 minutes from Rome on the fastest direct high-speed train to Porta Nuova, with a median of 4 hours 55, and its airport, Torino Caselle Sandro Pertini (TRN), handled 5,006,169² passengers in 2025.

By train from Rome

The fastest direct train from Roma Termini to Torino Porta Nuova takes 4 hours 25 minutes, and half the direct services take 4 hours 55 or less, on the timetable in force in September 2026. The slowest direct run measured took 7 hours 28 minutes.

The figures come from a sample of Trenitalia departures taken on September 8, 2026. They belong to that timetable, so recheck them if you're travelling after the winter change.

Many Frecciarossa stop at Torino Porta Susa a few minutes before the Porta Nuova terminus. Pick the station by where you're staying, not by habit.

By air: Caselle

Torino Caselle Sandro Pertini, IATA code TRN, handled 5,006,169² passengers in 2025, up 6.7% on 2024. That makes it the 13th busiest airport in Italy, run by SAGAT.

The link from Caselle into the city, by train or bus, isn't covered by the data verified for this page, and neither is its fare. Check it on the airport's site before you land.

Train times from Milan aren't in our data either. For that leg, and for any route other than Rome, use the Trenitalia planner rather than a figure found in a guide.

Walking in under the arcades

Turin has more than 12 km of arcades, according to the Comune di Torino, along via Roma, via Po, via Pietro Micca, via Cernaia, via Sacchi, corso Vittorio Emanuele II and the great squares, among them piazza Castello and piazza San Carlo.

That's the practical point for an arrival: rain or sun, much of the centre can be walked under cover with a small bag. You'll often read 18 km, but that figure comes from the press and the city's own source doesn't confirm it.

Which way to come

At 4 hours 25 minutes at best, the train from Rome is long enough that a flight is worth pricing. The train delivers you to a station in the city, while the plane leaves the Caselle transfer still to solve.

The city is at Turin, the rail route in detail at Rome to Turin by train, and the museum most people come for at the Egyptian Museum. The region is at Piedmont.
