Lake Iseo & Iseo town
Lago d'Iseo
Lombardy's fourth-largest lake, surrounded by mountains and less crowded than Como or Garda. The town of Iseo at its southern tip is the starting point for boat trips and cycling.
Lake Iseo is about 25 km long and became famous in 2016 thanks to Christo's floating-pier installation, The Floating Piers. On the south shore, the town of Iseo has a lakeside promenade, Piazza Garibaldi and a market every Friday. It's the ferry hub, with boats to Monte Isola, Lovere and other destinations. From Brescia, the Brescia–Iseo–Edolo railway takes about 30 minutes to reach the town. The lakeside road along the east shore has beautiful scenery and is ideal for cycling or driving.
