Holiday information

 

A walking holiday on the shores of Lake Iseo

This popular, indulgent and very gastronomic holiday combines three top-quality hotels – including two which are among the very best of our selection – for a marvellous exploration of an area that is little-known beyond northern Italy and feels all the more special as a result. Set between the better-known lakes of Como and Garda, Iseo is the smallest of Lombardy's four major lakes, but is a true jewel, with imposing, angular mountains and deep gorges to the north and the delightful Franciacorta vineyards in the hills to the south.
Grapes were first planted here in Roman times but the wines – the acclaimed sparkling whites, and the velvety reds – remain as great a secret as the region itself, serving as the perfect accompaniment to the refined cuisine of lake fish, delicious meats and distinctive local cheeses. While the two hotel-to-hotel routes are comparatively challenging, you can either enjoy leisurely circuits on the other days, or simply relax at the hotels.

Itinerary

The key to Inntravel holidays is flexibility. You can start on the day of your choice, and are free to add extra nights.
  • The average maximum daytime temperatures and monthly rainfall relate to the nearest weather station and are intended as a guide only.

    The best time for flowers and butterflies is May and June.

  • Arrival in Sulzano
    Night 1: at Hotel Rivalago (the first of two nights here).
    As your first night’s accommodation is on the day of travel, Day 1 is your first day of walking.
  • Choice of walks around Sulzano: 4km or 7km

    Circular walk on Monte Isola: 7km, 3hrs; ascent / descent 390m
    We recommend that you take the ferry (pay locally) across Lake Iseo to Mediterranean-feeling Monte Isola, the largest lake island in Europe. Setting off on foot, you head along the eastern side of the island towards Carzano, before ascending to the sanctuary on the summit of the island (600 metres above sea level), from where you descend and return to the harbour along a beautiful ancient path. In clear weather, the views are excellent – you can see some of the northerly Alpine ranges – and there is a 360-degree panorama from the sanctuary.

    Linear walk via Zone: 4km, 2hrs; ascent 135m / descent 550m
    This option involves taking a train and bus to the village of Cislano for a gentle walk amid the amazing earth pyramids of Zone – eroded moraine deposits standing up to 30 metres high – that give this area an almost surreal feel.

    Add an extra night to enjoy both options, or to take the train further afield to Val Camonica, one of the Alps’ largest and most fertile valleys.
    Circular walk on Monte Isola: 7km
    Walking on Monte Isola
  • Choice of walks from Sulzano to Iseo: 8.5km or 12km
    We offer two lovely routes to the Relais I Due Roccoli near Iseo, where you spend two nights.

    Sulzano to Iseo: 12km, 4.5hrs; ascent 510m / descent 530m
    After a short transfer, this varied and very rewarding day's walk takes you over tranquil, unspoiled hills, crossing meadows and grassy plains full of flowers and leading through olive groves and chestnut and oak woods. Natural terraces provide a panoramic balcony over the lake and surrounding mountains.

    Shorter option: 8.5km, 3.5hrs; ascent 695m / descent 345m
    A shorter route straight from the door that stays low initially, much closer to the lake shore. Although not as tranquil until after Pilzone, from where you start to head up into the hills, it does provide a more direct way of reaching Le Due Roccoli. As with the longer route, you pass through a mix of olive groves, chestnut woods and grassy plains with a rich variety of flowers. There are several lovely spots for a picnic and a few well-placed bar-restaurants for refreshments.
    Unspoiled hills and meadows enroute to Iseo
    Sulzano to Iseo: 12km, 4.5hrs
    Shorter option: 8.5km
  • Walk around Iseo town: 4.5km, 1.5hrs; ascent 10m / descent 360m
    If you can tear yourself away from the pool, walk down to the lakeshore to explore Iseo town and return by taxi (pay locally).

    Alternatively, you can access both of Day 1's suggested walks from Iseo by boat or train.
    Walk around Iseo town: 4.5km
    Explore around Iseo
  • Choice of walks from Iseo to Clusane: 9km or 15km
    Both of today's options visit the Torbiere Nature Reserve before continuing to Clusane, where you spend your final two nights at the Relais Mirabella.

    Iseo to Clusane: 15km, 5.5hrs; ascent 310m / descent 575m
    From the Due Roccoli you ascend the densely wooded slopes high above the town of Iseo, passing several magnificent viewpoints that offer panoramas over the lake that stretch for miles. You then cross the marshlands of the Torbiere Nature Reserve, home to red herons, wild ducks and marsh hawks, where flowering water lilies provide spectacular displays between May and September. By the time you reach Clusane you are in the Franciacorta region.

    Shorter option: 9km, 3hrs; ascent 150m / descent 100m
    A shorter option and recommended in case of wet weather. You begin by being dropped off at the railway station of Provaglio-Timoline, close to one of the entrances of the Torbiere Reserve. You then follow walkways and small wooden pontoons suspended on the water which circle part of the reserve, before joining the main ongoing route towards Clusane.
    Walking through the vines en route to Clusane
    Iseo to Clusane: 15km
    Shorter option: 9km
  • Circular walk via Colombaro: 16km, 5.5hrs; ascent / descent 220m
    This easy final circuit explores the Franciacorta vineyards to the south of the Torbiere Reserve, with good views back to the lake and mountains. There are two different estates en route which you can visit for a tour and wine-tasting (pre-booking required).

    Alternatively, take a leisurely boat trip* from Clusane to explore some of the other towns farther up the lake , hire bikes* to explore on two wheels, or simply relax at the hotel and drink in the views of the scenery surrounding this 'secret' lake.

    *Pay locally for boat travel or bike hire.
    Circular walk via Colombaro: 16km

    This list of flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated in the connecting travel section, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Please do not book your flights until we have confirmed your accommodation to you. Alternatively, our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice and to make flight bookings for you for any of the options listed above except those operated by Ryanair. We charge £35 per person for our flight booking service (£60 for India and Nepal). Your flights are then covered by our package-booking conditions, which give you greater protection in the event of delay or cancellation, as well as providing ATOL cover.

  • Prices below are based on 2 people travelling together. If you are travelling solo or as a party of 3 or more and our arrangements include a taxi, please contact us for prices; additional passengers often pay less.

    Unless otherwise stated, connecting travel by rail or bus tends to be from the city centre station, rather than from its airport, and connections between the two should be paid for locally.

    Well yet again we are back from another wonderful walking holiday and have been surprised by everything we saw, the trip was for our Pearl Wedding Anniversary and we were certainly spoilt all along the way! The holiday was perfect for us just for a week, the walking was great and not too easy, the weather was very kind to us and the scenery was different to what we expected. But gorgeously different. One of the highlights of the walks was on Monte Isola, the walk was great and we were so lucky that it was early autumn so we could see all of the amazing chestnut trees at their best, we’ve never seen as many chestnuts in our lives it will be a lasting memory for us. All of the hotels were fabulous and the food was exceptional particularly in Hotel Due Roccoli, some of the best Italian food we have ever eaten. We have enjoyed every second of this trip and want to thank Inn Travel for making our celebrations even more special, we’ve certainly made some more wonderful memories and can’t wait to book next years trip soon.

    This was a superb holiday in a quieter part of Italy, wonderful walking, high quality hotels with lovely staff and excellent meals. Worth adding an extra day at either end to explore a little more, or even just relax!

    The scenery around lake Iseo was marvellous as were the views from all the hotels. The hotels were all of a high standard as was the food supplied. All hotels were able to cater for Bridget's gluten and dairy free diet and made every effort to ensure she was well catered for.

    It was a dream of a holiday. Lake is beautiful. The people are all lovely, we did a full day on the ferry to the top of the lake, lunch then back all for 13 euros. This was a fantastic deal and we so enjoyed the experience of the ferries. The hotels were first class picnics were a treat. In all a hidden dream up there.

    This was a fantastic week's walking by Lake Iseo staying in three beautiful hotels. This was our first time with Inntravel, but we will definitely use them again.

    The walks were quite long and there were some steep sections (up and down) but very enjoyable, varied and often with lovely views of the lake. Route descriptions were all pretty clear. Our toughest day was probably on Monte Isola, but well worth the climb! There were various restaurants on the walk from Sulzano to Iseo to supplement our picnic, but worth noting that there was nothing really between Iseo and Clusane.

    We added extra nights at Due Roccoli and Mirabella which was really worth doing. Also upgraded to a lake view room at Due Roccoli - spectacular view! With hindsight we would have added another night at Rivalago as the setting of the pool was just so beautiful. The food and the service were fantastic at Due Roccoli, though the pool area was a bit cramped. At Mirabella, everything was just lovely: food, staff, pool. The hotel reception at Mirabella arranged bike rental for us and arranged some vineyard visits which was great and our e-bikes were delivered to the hotel (the e-bikes were great for getting up the hill to the hotel at the end of the day!)

    Thoroughly recommend this walking tour.

    This was a lovely holiday, just enough challenging walking to justify the delicious meals eaten in the evening.  The last day was spent at the hotel relaxing by the pool which we felt we had deserved, this is a holiday after all!

    An excellent holiday, the amount of shaded walking was a bonus in the heat, with stunning views. Wonderful hotels with friendly staff and excellent food.

    Just a fantastic trip. Stunning scenery, great hotels and great walking.

    Excellent hotels, varied and interesting area and walking, we will return to explore more another time. Fanciacorta wines are lovely and well worth investigating!! The holiday exceeded our expectations despite the weather!!
 

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • If your holiday plans go awry because of Coronavirus, rest assured that we’ll do right by you. Since the start of the pandemic, our flexible booking policy and prompt issuing of refunds to customers who prefer not to defer their holiday have earned us high praise in the national press.
  • We sincerely hope that your holiday experience will be as enjoyable as it would have been before the pandemic – walking holidays are ideal in these times of social distancing, and we’re not operating holidays if the key highlights can no longer be delivered – but, naturally, there will be some changes to ensure your and other people’s safety, not least taking tests before and after your holiday for many destinations.

    Safety measures being taken by hoteliers & others >
    Entry requirements for non-UK destinations & for re-entering the UK >
  • We’ll send you route notes and maps 2-3 weeks before your holiday. The route notes not only contain directions to get from hotel to hotel, but also include practical information about places of interest and eateries along each route, plus cultural information about the area. If/when you are moving between hotels, you leave your luggage in reception as you leave, and it will be transferred ahead to your next accommodation, meaning that all you need to take with you are a camera, sun cream, drinks, food and waterproofs.

    For more detailed information, see our walking holidays in Europe page.
  • Yes, prior to going on holiday you will be able to download GPX tracks so that you can follow your route on your smartphone or dedicated GPS device if you wish. It’s entirely up to you whether or not you use them – our detailed, step-by-step route notes remain the principal means of guiding you from A to B – but we provide them as a secondary means of navigation for additional reassurance when walking.
  • We can book a wide range of routes from the UK with a variety of airlines (but not, currently, with Ryanair). As well as being more convenient for you to book all elements of your holiday together, it also means that we’ll accept liability for your travel arrangements, so if things go wrong, such as the airline going bust, we’ll make suitable alternative arrangements for you. For Europe, there’s a £35 booking fee per person (£15 for children aged 2-11). For India and Nepal, the booking fee is £60 per person. More information on flights >
  • Absolutely! We are experts in tailored rail travel. Making use of sleeper trains or stopovers in cities along the route, we can get you from London to virtually anywhere in mainland Europe. We can even make arrangements to Mallorca, Sicily and Norway with a combination of ferries and rail. Please contact Abi and Lizzie to discuss your plans.
  • We can’t book flights that originate outside the UK, but if you wanted to book your own flights to London (or elsewhere in the UK), we can make all onward travel arrangements (including flights) from there. Alternatively, if you are booking your own flights to an airport in continental Europe that’s appropriate for your holiday, we can book onward rail travel and/or taxis. More information about how we can tailor holidays for customers outside the UK >
  • Since our holidays are self-guided, we recommend calling us for a chat about your plans before making a booking, especially if it’s the first time you’ve booked with us.
    The price panel shows the supplement for a single room and also the single traveller charge (this covers (luggage) transfers and other costs which are usually shared between two people).
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can cost tens of thousands of pounds.

    You don’t have to take out our recommended travel insurance policy (if you live outside the UK you’ll definitely need to make your own arrangements, as the policy is only for UK residents), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    We'll ask you for the details of your policy (insurer, policy number and medical emergency phone number) so that we can help out if the worst happens while you are on holiday. It's up to you, though, to check that your policy covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs; we don't check alternative policies.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to Italy, but not a visa. If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question).
