June 1, 2025,Bolsena - Montefiascone

Today's stage is short, we decided to stop in Montefiascone just 16 km from Bolsena. We left early anyway because the temperatures are now full summer and after the early hours of the morning the heat is unbearable.
A beautiful route all on paths and dirt roads that after skirting the lake enters a beautiful forest.
The uphill road in …

September 10, 2025,39. Via Frangigena - Bolsena - Montefiascone

Today's stage was shorter, and I was glad of that. Heavy thunderstorms are forecast. Even though I tend to enjoy running in the rain, I don't really need extreme thunderstorms when hiking. Fortunately, my time frame for the nearly 18km remained almost dry. Only upon arrival did it start to rain so heavily that there were floods in Montefiascone. Today's …

September 24, 2022,Via Francigena Etappe 7: Bolsena - Montefiascone

The most important thing on today's seventh stage: we arrived in Montefiascone dry and in a good mood before the pouring rain started. We were accordingly fast on the road today and already at 1 p.m. at our destination.

The highlight, in addition to great views of Lake Bolsena and really beautiful paths through small forests, olive groves and vineyards, …

September 13, 2023,To Montefiascone

If I were to walk this again I'd start from Montefiascone and walk to Bolsena. This is because the last part of the walk into, and before, the old town was on very busy and dingy main roads which wasn't a great ending to a beautiful long hike. However this is a fantastic hike along the Francigena/Pilgrim's way and walking …

April 9, 2024,Tag 31: Bolsena - Montefiascone

Short stage from the lake up to the town at the top of the "crater rim", Montefiascone. This is where the wine EST! EST!! EST!!! comes from 🍷. Maybe the name sounds familiar to some of you.
On the way there are larger and smaller animals, smaller cars 🚗, large piles of wood, small dwarves, beautiful views of the lake …

April 23, 2024,VF 2024.04.23. Tag 16. von Lucca nach Rom

I had planned to have a "day off"...the weather app predicted only a shower at 12 today, but a lot of rain tomorrow. You can imagine what happened then...it poured down at intervals! Whatever, I reached my goal for the day. Incidentally, a beautiful little town with delicious wine EST!EST!EST!
The cathedral and the castle were absolutely magnificent, the view …

November 6, 2025,45. Bolsena to Montefiascone

It was a short sunny day with the view of Lake Bolsena all day long among olive orchards. The downside was there wasn't any café or restaurant for morning tea. However, Bruno found a bench on his OSM map when we needed a break.

March 12, 2023,E1' 199- 🇮🇹 ⛪VF: Bolsena > Montefiascone

E1-I5: E1'Day 199 | Tour Day 6 | Sun. 12.3.23
First you walk along the Lago for a while, then up and into the Monti Vulsini nature reserve. The whole area here was formed by volcanic activity, the lake a collapsed crater, the mountains rims of a caldera. At some distance from the east bank of the Bolsena, it goes …
