Boat at the ready as we travel out onto Lake Trasimeno for some fishing in a fishing boat. Then on to discover the importance of the ‘Trasimeno Bean’, a terrific Etruscan civilization food which has an extraordinary quality in terms of being healthy and nutritional.

 

In the morning we will board a fishing boat and discover the wonderful work of fishing and travel out onto Lake Trasimeno.

Lunch will be in a small hamlet along the shore of the lake.

In the afternoon we will visit a small farm which cultivates beans and pulses learning about their heritage. Today, the beans of Lake Trasimeno are a unique product. They have specific and very particular genetic characteristics, to the point where, in 2000, they were recognised and inserted into the Slow Food Presidium. This is mainly thanks to the patient and persistent work of young farmers and working with the University of Agriculture of Perugia.
