It is said that when you reach the centre of the lake, your voice creates an echo powerful enough to reach every shore. If you are thinking of proposing, why not let your proposal echo all the way to Piediluco, the picturesque village of colourful houses?
Reach the picturesque “Lovers’ Balcony” through the “Lovers Tunnel”. Too romantic? Oh, why not? It’s Valentine’s Day!

The Piazza del Duomo is a peculiar and charming setting, especially at night, when the colours of the church façade soften into a soft, romantic glow. Don’t miss the chance to toss a “good luck” coin into the bottom of the well and discover the underground to truly fall in love with Orvieto.
From its shores (Passignano sul Trasimeno, San Feliciano, Tuoro sul Trasimeno, Castiglione del Lago), you can enjoy, depending on the season and weather, an intense, beautiful light and astonishing colours. A visit to the charming village on Isola Maggiore is also a very romantic experience.

A place among weeping willows and shimmering waters, that inspired Pliny the Younger, Virgil, Lord Byron and Carducci. Enjoy a romantic date and a stroll towards the Temple of Clitunno.
