Fonti del Clitunno, Natural springs and park in Campello sul Clitunno, Italy

The springs create a lake with clear green waters spanning 10,000 square meters, surrounded by weeping willows and poplars along the Via Flaminia road.

The water source was so abundant in Roman times that it formed a navigable river to Rome until an earthquake in 440 AD altered its geological structure.

Ancient poets including Propertius, Pliny, Virgil, and later Lord Byron documented their appreciation of these springs through their literary works.

The park operates daily from 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM with an entrance fee of 3 euros for adults and reduced rates for children and groups.

Underground water emerges through rock fissures creating a lake that hosts rare aquatic plants like phanerogams, horsetail, moss, and water nasturtiums.
