Villaggio
Punta del Lago
At the outskirts of Rome this is
your Australian home
Lake Vico (it's ancient Lacus Ciminus) is
a large lake of volcanic origin set on the Cimini Mountains,
one of the most charming areas in the province of Viterbo.
The lake formed about 400, 000 years ago after some violent
volcanic eruptions.
Today, many excellent resorts built
around the lake make it a favourite tourist destination. The
area offers much to those who enjoy quiet and tranquil
places. Covered with chestnut, oak and beech trees, the
hills of the Cimini Mountains are ideal for a relaxing
holiday. However for the more energetic there are excursions
on horseback and treking both along panoramic paths. The
economy of the area is mainly based on hazelnut growing;
while staying with us and visit one of the many small
ancient, Etruscan, Roman and medioeval towns on the hills,
be sure to taste a tozzetto (a typical local biscuit made
with hazelnuts) when visiting one of the small ancient
Etruscan, Roman or medioeval towns in the hills. Wonderful
nature and good food are just two of the reasons that make
this area a lovely place to stay.
Just a few miles from the lake you can find
some hidden jewels, such as Farnese Palace at Caprarola and
the Roman amphitheatre at Sutri; or typical medieval towns,
such as Ronciglione and Soriano nel Cimino.
