In addition to taking a dip or sail on the lake, visitors can explore the rolling countryside around Lake Bracciano via the hiking and cycling trails running to the Macchiatonda Nature Reserve and the Tarquinia Salt Marshes. Lake Bracciano is a popular excursion from Rome, and joining a Lake Bracciano day trip that includes stops at the historic Orsini-Odescalchi castle and lunch is an easy way to experience the lake and environs without the hassle of driving.
Alternatively, consider joining a longer tour of four of central Italy’s most beautiful lakes—Bracciano, Bolsena, Vico, and Trasimeno—or enjoying the view from above by booking a paragliding experience or hot air balloon flight over the lake.
