It

the
north
of
the
country
in
the
Val
Camonica
area,

known
for
its
heavily
industrialised
towns
and
in
between

are
several
natural
lakes.
Lake
Iseo
retains
its
natural
environment,
with
its
lush
green
mountains
surrounding
the
crystal
clear
lake.
There
are
several
medieval
towns
around
the
lake,
the
largest
being
Iseo
and
Sarnico.
A
notable
tourism
sector
has
emerged.
A
road
has
been
carved
into
the
side
of
the
mountains
that
circumnavigates
the
entire
lake.
In
the
middle
of
the
lake
there
are
Montisola
island,
Loreto
isle
and
San
Paolo
isle
(which
compound
the
Monte
Isola
municipality).
There
is
easy
access
via
the
regular
running
lake
ferries.
The
Floating
Piers,
an
art
installation
by
Christo
and
Jeanne-Claude,
was

to
the
public
at
Lake
Iseo
for
16
days
in
June
and
July
2016.
Since
2018,
the
northern
portion
of
the
lake
(called
Alto
Sebino)
is
part
of
the
UNESCO
World
Biosphere
Reserve
of
"Valle
Camonica
-
Alto
Sebino".
