Italian Lakes
Water is the constant element of the scenery in northern Italy at the back of the Alps. The history, culture and economy of these regions are closely linked to the presence of stupendous lakes.
The clouds, the sky and the surrounding scenery with its trees and roofs of old houses are reflected in the lake basins. It is an unforgettable experience to go on a rowing or motor-boat, or even a sailing boat, as well as walking along the shores of the lake.
The lakesides hide old routes made of paths and walkways that link the lakeside centres to the green hinterland made up of hanging valleys and terraces.
The famous lakeside resorts, such as Bellagio, Stresa and Sirmione, extend to the jetties in a harmonious shading of houses interwoven with narrow lakeside alleyways. The parks of antiquated, aristocratic villas encompass the scenery that has stolen the souls of famous writers, such as Alessandro Manzoni and Gabriele Dannunzio, with a frame of greenery.
