Bicycle ride through the streets of the ancient village where today only 16 people live but which was once a rich and thriving fish center that supplied the entire papal state. The ancient fishermen’s village is now non-existent and the castle in ruins but on the main street of the island there are still palaces and a museum dedicated to Irish lace, which is one of the peculiarities of the island! Pheasants in freedom, crickets and cicadas and the silence broken only by the rustle of trees and the sound of the waves make the Isola Maggiore a truly magical and unmissable place! In the afternoon departure by ferry to the north shore of the lake, towards Passignano. (possibility of extending the stay to the Isola Maggiore). Hotel accommodation and time to enjoy the beautiful holiday atmosphere of the village, full of restaurants and cafés on the lakefront.
