Lake Trasimeno: the Chocolake

98lake.gif (3812 byte)

The idea of transforming Lake Trasimeno into a "Chocolake" was started in 1998. There are relaxing cruises which allow visitors the opportunity to appreciate the wonderful landscape and the delicious chocolates served on board the ChocoBoat. Every week-end during the day and the evening, the Chocoboat sails to the ancient towns surrounding the lake and stops at the three islands (Maggiore, Minore and Polvese).
During the cruises a special ChocoBand plays live music.

Zucchero a Vela is a sailing regatta on the lake

Teatro Caporali (Panicale)

In 1998, the little Caporali theatre in the beautiful medieval village of Panicale was the venue for a musical comedy show based on the theme of chocolate.

Also in 1998 the first "Torneo di Chocogolf" was organised in the three Golf Clubs located in Umbria. There were Milk Chocolate, Plain Chocolate and Hazelnut Chocolate competitions where winners were presented with a quantity of chocolate equivalent to their weight!
