La Bella Italia
 


Lazio

 

Lazio lays halfway Italy. It stretches itself from of the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Apennine Mountains and it is the cradle of Roman civilization.
You cycle in three stages from Pompeii via the undulating inlands of Lazio to the capital Rome. Thé treasury of Italy. It is one large open-air museum with its uncountable number of sights of the Roman Empire. The middle ages have also left behind their traces and unique churches, arts and fountains. 

Vatican City with its impressive St. Peter, the largest catholic building in the world, is of course one of the places you don't want to miss. It will not surprise you that we have planned two rest days to explore the "eternal" city on one's own.
Two days will not be sufficient to let sink in all impressions. Rest is probably not on its place before you continue the journey northward along Lago di Braccano, Lago di Vico and Lago di Balsena.
