Passirano Castle

Highlight • Castle

Built in 1100 for defensive purposes, the Passirano Castle preserves its massive walls, the ancient moat on one side and the two semi-circular towers including the Torre della Specola, used as an astronomical observatory in the 18th century. The Ghibelline battlements, dating back to the 17th century, are visually striking. The entrance portal dates back to the 18th century.

Inside the Passirano Castle there is currently a winery producing Franciacorta wine.

Clusane Sul Lago Waterfront Promenade

Highlight • Viewpoint

Clusane sul Lago is a pretty little town in the south of Lake Iseo with a great fishing tradition. The place is south of Iseo. The visitor can expect a small historical core, an important castle and a remarkable waterfront promenade along a narrow peninsula, at the tip of which is the shipping pier. In summer, on this promenade (Lungolago), countless tables are brought together to form a single large table to celebrate the legendary festival 'Tinca al forno'.

Lamette of the Torbiere del Sebino

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Torbiere del Sebino are a Nature Reserve, they appear as a marshy and marshy area, with reed beds and stretches of water perfectly inserted in the landscape formed by cultivated fields, houses and roads of Franciacorta.

The portion called "Lamette" is nothing more than a peat lagoon directly on the lake.

It is possible to cross them by bicycle, even if most of the areas are dedicated only to pedestrians.

Lake Iseo

Highlight • Lake

A long, beautifully landscaped beach with cafés and restaurants, some of which are located within the campsites. Although many surfers show off their skills, this popular beach doesn't crowd each other.

Iseo

Highlight • Settlement

Considered the "capital" of the lake of the same name, Iseo has a lively center with elegant shops, restaurants and clubs. It is very popular, especially on weekends, with numerous tourists and visitors. The buildings in the main streets are of considerable historical value.

Iseo is also a strategic point for reaching Monte Isola: in the port there is in fact the docking of the boat used for transporting passengers.
In the spring and autumn you can't miss a walk along the lakeside and in summer a nice refreshing swim on the well-known beach.

A stone's throw from the Torbiere del Sebino, Iseo also offers convenient access to the reserve (it is necessary to have a regular ticket at the vending machines for entry).
