Riserva naturale Lago di Vico, Regional nature reserve in Caprarola and Ronciglione, Italy.

Lake Vico Nature Reserve spans 3,200 hectares of woodland, marshland, and lake environments within a volcanic caldera in the Lazio region.

The reserve originated from a volcanic collapse approximately 400,000 years ago, forming Lake Vico and the surrounding mountainous ridges that define its borders.

The reserve headquarters at Palazzo delle Scuderie Farnese hosts nature documentaries and environmental education programs throughout the year for local communities.

Visitors can explore designated trails, use multilingual audio guides in Italian, English, French, German, and Chinese, or observe wildlife from specified observation points.

The great crested grebe, selected as the symbol of the reserve, nests along the lake shores alongside numerous other water birds and aquatic species.
