Itinerary and highlights

Overlooking the lake, the Orsini-Odescalchi Castle is one of the best-preserved examples of Renaissance and military architecture in Europe. Explore the fully furnished historic rooms, including the Armory and the mysterious "Room of Blood," tied to the fascinating and macabre legends of the Orsini noblewoman. Stroll through the medieval historic center at the foot of the fortress and enjoy breathtaking lake views from the castle's hanging gardens.

Perched on a promontory jutting into the lake's waters, Anguillara Sabazia charms visitors with its rustic and picturesque historic center. A maze of narrow, winding alleys climbing uphill offers unique views—perfect for taking photos and soaking in an authentic, old-world atmosphere.

Famous for its enchanting lakeside promenade lined with centuries-old pine trees, Trevignano Romano boasts a delightful, fully pedestrianized historic center. Among cobblestone streets, ivy-covered pastel houses, and local artisan shops, you can walk up to the lookout behind the main church to enjoy a priceless panoramic view over the entire volcanic crater.

On the way back to Rome, the tour stops in Calcata, a fairytale village carved entirely into a tuff cliff overlooking the Treja valley. Abandoned and later reborn in the 1960s thanks to the arrival of artists, musicians, and artisans from around the world, the town offers a unique bohemian atmosphere filled with craft shops, quiet alleys, and spectacular views of unspoiled nature.
