Boat Trips

Alternatively, you can visit two of the three islands on the lake, Isola Maggiore and Isola Polvese (https://polvese.it/ ) These can be visited by ferry from a number of the towns around the lake and offer the opportunity to visit museums of local crafts and historical buildings. Or you can just enjoy wandering in the national parks, discovering the local flora and fauna. The closest is the jetty at San Feliciano and times of departure and return are available at ticket office.

There are nine public beaches on the islands or around the lake where you can sunbathe or swim in the shallow water of the lake.

For children the best beaches on the banks of the lake are at Passignano and Tuoro, as there are lots of child facilities including playgrounds, ball pits, trampolines, etc. There are small beaches with shallow water that are perfect for little ones to splash around in.

​

Marmore Waterfalls

Distance 1hr 21 minutes / 117 kms

These spectacular waterfalls are located close to Terni in Southern Umbria. They are 165 metres in height and are the tallest man-made waterfalls in the world. The Cascata delle Marmore were created by the Romans when they diverted the Velino river over cliff into the River Nera. Worth the drive but please check the times that they are running as the falls are regulated and run intermittently.

Frasassi Caves

(distance 1hr 14mins / 101 kms)

The caves are open all year round and a visit can last approx. one hour. The caves consist of an immense cavern and a series of large chambers, tunnels, wells and labyrinths that snake for 13 km. Stalactites formed over thousands of years have entwined themselves to create stunning reflections on the surface of the water and take on bizarre shapes.
