Monte Isola is the highest island of all european lakes. You can reach it by ferry from Riva di Solto (check it out the website of navigation http://www.navigazionelagoiseo.it/eng). You can visit it by bicycle (I suggest you to use a MTB, download the gps track of a trail here http://www.lifeintravel.it/outdoor/mountain-bike/download-mtb?download=299) or on foot climbing the trail to the amazing sanctuary on the top of the island. Discover more about Montisola on the official tourism website http://www.iseolake.info/en/places/510-monte-isola

Parks & Nature

One of the most beautiful place on Iseo lake. The natural amphitheater of Zorzino Bogn is situated just 12 minutes on foot from Riva di Solto town, on lakeside. In this amazing place where the blue water blends with the sky you can relax, swim, jump in the water and fish. It's an highlight of this area! I suggest to park your car outside of Riva di Solto and walk on the lakeside to the small beaches of Bogn.

The small lake of Endine is a perfect place to spend a quiet day walking, biking on western lakeside (eastern one is dangerous because of traffic), fishing or swimming. The eastern side is full of bars or place where you can eat or drink something, the western one is quieter but anyway you can find a place to have a rest as the beach of Monasterolo. On the lake you can also rent canoes or pedalò. During summer sometimes there are shows with live music.

The natural reserve of Valle del Freddo is a unique place, an environment where during all year fresh air leaves the subsoil through three "cold holes"; so the climate is different from the rest of the area and, only in this natural reserve at 360 meters, 30 alpine species of plants live. It's possible to find also edelweiss that usually grow up over 2000 meters.
