Monte Isola is the largest lake island in Italy — a quiet world of small villages, olive groves and walking paths overlooking Lake Iseo. Life here moves at its own rhythm: no cars, no noise, just boats arriving and leaving throughout the day. From NIDO ISOLA, you can explore the island on foot, by bike or by ferry. Small trattorias, local shops and panoramic viewpoints are scattered across the island, each offering a different perspective on this unique landscape.

Lake Iseo is one of Italy’s most intimate lakes — quieter and more untouched than Lake Garda or Lake Como, yet just as beautiful. Surrounded by mountains and small lakeside towns, it offers a slower rhythm and a sense of space that feels instantly calming. Boat trips, swimming spots and villages like Iseo, Lovere and Pisogne make the area easy to explore throughout the year.

Across the lake lies Franciacorta — Italy’s renowned sparkling-wine region. Rolling hills, elegant wineries and quiet vineyard roads make it one of the most rewarding day trips from Monte Isola. Many of the best wineries can be reached within a 20–30 minute drive from the ferry ports, offering tastings, tours and beautiful places to spend an afternoon.

NIDO ISOLA is surrounded by places worth exploring. Brescia — a UNESCO World Heritage city — is just across the lake. Bergamo offers a beautifully preserved old town, and the lakeside villages of Iseo, Lovere and Pisogne are ideal for quiet afternoons by the water. For longer excursions, Milan and Verona can be reached easily by train or car.
