The lake is vorbidden to the motors and its water is used as aqueduct of Rome. In the nearby: the Farnese Palace by Caprarola, the rocked mall villages of Ceri and Calcata, Oriolo Romano with its portrait-gallery of all the popes in the Altieri Palace, Viterbo with its beautiful medieval centre and the Papal Palace, the numerous Etruscan excavations and necropolis in Cerveteri, Tarquinia, Tuscania, Veio, Barbarano, Santa Severa to name but a few, Sutri with the ancient amphiteather and mitreo, all within easy distance, and of course, ROME!!.
