Hermitage of San Domenico
Highlight • Religious Site
The path is easy and suitable for families. It starts from the village of Villalago to reach the Lake of San Domenico and then the Hermitage.
A few steps from the hermitage is the characteristic bridge over the lake, a suggestive passage suspended over intensely colored waters, from which you can enjoy an excellent unique view of the Lake of San Domenico and the surrounding valley.

Villalago Historic Center
Highlight • Settlement
Strolling through the alleys, you can discover small details, flowery balconies, and panoramic viewpoints opening onto the surrounding valley. The silence and tranquility of the village make this stop ideal for a regenerating break, far from the chaos.
In recent years, Villalago has become even more special thanks to the presence of deer, which increasingly venture into the inhabited center, offering surprising encounters and a unique contact with nature even among the village houses.
"Giorgetto" is the most famous deer in Villalago, an imposing specimen recognizable by his 8-pointed antlers, a sign of great strength and maturity. Every year, in September, he descends towards the village during the mating season, offering the evocative spectacle of his roar that attracts visitors and photographers.
Having become a true social media star, he is today one of the most exciting encounters in the area. Remember, however, to always observe him from a distance, respecting his wild nature.
