Guidebook for Rome
Parks & Nature
Do not miss a visit to a wonderful Bracciano Lake and the three medieval villages: Bracciano, Trevignano Romano, Anguillara Sabazia. The lake, of volcanic origin, belongs to a protected area and this guarantees the preservation of its fauna and its flora. The lake is forbidden to motor boats (except for the tourist ferry and for local fishermen) and allows bathing in peace and quiet. There are wide beaches. Trevignano Romano has a beautiful lakefront with cafè and restaurants where to eat delicious dishes. Anguillara Sabazia perched on the rock, develops between alleys and glimpses on the lake. In Bracciano you can visit the Odescalchi Castle with breathtaking views of the lake.
