Max. length 13 km (8.1 mi)[2] Max. width 11 km (6.8 mi) Surface area 113.5 km2 (in acres 28.051,40) Average depth 81 m (266 ft) Max. depth 151 m (495 ft) Lake Bolsena (Italian: Lago di Bolsena) is a crater lake of central Italy, of volcanic origin, which was formed starting 370,000 years ago following the collapse of a caldera of the Vulsini volcanic complex into a deep aquifer. Roman historic records indicate activity of the Vulsini volcano occurred as recently as 104 BC, since when it has been dormant. The two islands in the southern part of the lake were formed by underwater eruptions following the initial collapse of the caldera. (Source Wikipedia)

Ed - A terrific description you have provided. The collapse was enormous to produce a lake of this scale. It looks like a wonderful place to go for sailing, swimming and walking (the last one not on the water). Thad

Looks a really great place for all sorts of leisure activities, Ed. Excellent composition too.

A very nice capture of this setting. A boaters dream.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Very nice that you included the history on this beautiful photo. Fran

every day is a gift......that's why it's called the present!!
Is there a bench in the shade of the trees? I would sit there for hours watching the geese or ducks or the boats, or just people walking by. Very nice, Ed.
