May 3, 2024,Acquapendente - Bolsena on AllTrails

Today felt a bit like coming home to Bolsena. What a fantastically beautiful place this is. The street to the lake with its centuries-old plane trees is so beautiful. And the beautiful houses. We left early today to get to Bolsena on time. To take another look at the place. But what a beautiful walk today. The nature is so …

The route mostly stayed away from cars today which was nice. Great first view of the lake about halfway through! It was hot, I still need to adjust to that.. I'm wiped out.

We had nice dinner yesterday. Usually, we have a mixed salad and a pasta dish. In Tuscany, it was pici, homemade thick spaghetti, either with truffle or porcini. Yesterday, we had an anchovy and lemon sauce.

Today begins our fourth and final week of walking. We leave Acquapendente, a town a bit chaotic due to traffic and not particularly beautiful. We reach Bolsena on the lake of the same name. Beautiful ancient village and seafront crowded with tourists.

Dark clouds accompany us today, but it stays dry. The scenic contrasts to the previous sections in Tuscany are clear on this stage. Tonight we stay in the monastery in a double cell. There they ask for a donation, but please at least 15 € per person 🙂
