Sailing, canoe and kayak courses at Bracciano

Bracciano

The lakefront at Bracciano has the Orsini castle above it and this centre on the water below, with club boats, canoes and boards tied up and an adult school that starts from nothing at all.

How the day goes

  1. Arrive at the base: changing rooms, parking and a snack point on site.
  2. An adult sailing lesson from the beginning, or a canoe and kayak course.
  3. Out on the water under the castle, which watches the whole lake.

Everything here is taught as a course rather than sold as a single outing, so ask what fits the days you have.
