For the bird watchers out there, this is a must. And even if you're not immediately drawn to the majestic herons and swans, the tour of the Torbiere del Sebino - what with its vibrant meadows and panoramic viewpoints - is remarkable on its own. Stay until sunset and admire the golden light reflecting on the placid waters.

Nestled within the walls of an ancient courtyard in Iseo, Radicì Ristorante is anything but ancient, with flavors, presentations, and decor all a contemporary take on some of the region’s finest local dishes.

This bright tavern in Clusane, near the shores of Lake Iseo, serves daily catches from the lake in innovative ways. Think lake fish tempura with lime and ginger mayonnaise, or dried Montisola sardines with cheesy polenta, dandelion green sauce, and crispy polenta. The food is utterly delicious, not to mention the wine!

Hiking has never been made easier, than with the Antica Strada Valeriana. With exceptional panoramic views of the lake, and frequent stops through the quaint villages, we could walk for miles!
