Discover small, traditional fishing villages, hidden olive groves, and a smattering of castles at Lake Trasimeno, the largest body of water in peninsular Italy. Admire the area's churches, and learn about their connection with the region's Etruscan and medieval past. Take a dip in the lake's shallow waters at one of its many beaches, hop a boat to one of its small islands, or try a round of golf at a nearby course. Many of the waterside restaurants specialize in freshwater fish in addition to traditional Italian fare. Plan your visit to Lake Trasimeno and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Perugia trip planner.

Very sad to see what happened to the lake because of the lack of raining (i think) in last winter. We hope it's could be over in this 2022 winter.If we never treated Mother Nature well she will fight back and the result is disastrous.If we never understand and underestimated Mother Nature, that's the beginning of the End of Mandkind.

Beautiful area! We had an AirBNB VILLA that over looked the Lake and it was a stunning view.
