Lake Nemi

Lake Nemi is nestled in the Alban Hills south of Rome and is a true insider tip for anyone looking to experience not only ancient culture but also natural idyll and Mediterranean driving pleasure on their cabrio tour around Rome. The charming little town of Nemi high above the crater lake and the winding roads surrounding it make this place a highlight of any cabrio tour in Central Italy.

Dreamy Cabrio Routes around Lake Nemi

The journey to Lake Nemi is already part of the experience: narrow curves, wide views, and the deep blue water of the lake create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable cabrio route. A popular cabrio route takes you over Castel Gandolfo, along the Via dei Laghi, with spectacular views of the volcanic lakes in the region. Lake Nemi itself invites you to take a break with a view – perfect for a relaxed stage on your cabrio road trip.

Anyone integrating Lake Nemi into a longer cabrio trip can drive through the entire Alban Hills region while visiting charming places like Genzano di Roma or Frascati. This route offers everything a cabrio driver’s heart desires: Mediterranean vegetation, quiet side roads, and plenty of curves through hilly landscapes with distant views as far as Rome.

Lake Nemi – Nature, History, and Dolce Vita

The lake itself is not only picturesque but also historically significant: Emperor Caligula once had lavish ships built here, the remnants of which can now be viewed at the Museo delle Navi Romane. The little town of Nemi is famous for its strawberries, which you can try in one of the many lakeside cafés – the perfect moment on a sunny cabrio tour.

The region around Nemi offers ideal conditions for anyone who enjoys nature while driving but does not want to miss out on cultural discoveries.
