Casa colonica in Civita Castellana

The Monti Cimini, a low volcanic hill range, lie inside the 15 km radius. Lago di Vico, a volcanic lake set in the Monti Cimini, is within the local area. The Sacro Bosco (Park of the Monsters) at Bomarzo is in a neighbouring commune and lies within the same local area. The Renaissance Villa Farnese at Caprarola is also within the local area. There are no ski lifts in the immediate area. The provincial capital Viterbo is the nearest town of size and provides a medieval centre, thermal baths (Terme dei Papi) and a regional railway station. The surrounding countryside is a mix of cultivated plains and lower hill slopes with olive groves, vineyards and wooded areas. The wider zone is part of the Etruscan and later medieval landscape of northern Lazio, with archaeological sites distributed across the province.
