Monte Isola, Lake island commune in Lombardy, Italy
Monte Isola stands as the largest lake island in South and Central Europe, rising 415 meters above Lake Iseo's surface across 12.8 square kilometers.
The first written records of Monte Isola date to 905, when the monastery of San Salvatore in Brescia included it among its registered properties.
The eleven villages of Monte Isola maintain traditions through local products, including regional salami, extra-virgin olive oil, and dried sardines from Lake Iseo.
Regular ferry services connect Monte Isola to mainland towns along Lake Iseo, with the most frequent boats departing every 20 minutes from Sulzano harbor.
Motor vehicles are prohibited on the island, allowing only service vehicles, mopeds, and bicycles, creating an environment focused on pedestrian exploration.
