Lake Bolsena, the largest volcanic lake in Europe, is the main attraction in the area: in summer it is ideal for swimming, windsurfing and boat trips to the islands of Bisentina and Martana, while during the shoulder seasons walks along the shores and through the village, dominated by the Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara, are pleasant. Nearby, about 13 km away, is Orvieto with its famous Torre del Moro, a popular half-day trip destination for those staying in Bolsena.
