長い間水が戻ってきました。おそらくここ数ヶ月の雨のおかげでしょう。池にはオタマジャクシも数匹いて、池に放たれました。

Fontan Tempesta is much more than a simple spring: it is a melting pot of history, geology, and legend located in the heart of the Castelli Romani Park, along the ancient path connecting Genzano, Nemi, and Rocca di Papa. 1. History and Name The name "Tempesta" has ancient roots. Some historians link it to the Tempesta family, local nobles in the Middle Ages. Others, more romantically, maintain that the area is so named for the frequency of intense atmospheric phenomena due to the particular shape of the Nemi volcanic crater, which "attracts" thunderstorms. 2. A Hydrographic Turning Point The spring is located approximately 600 meters above sea level. Geologically, the water that flows here is the result of filtering through the pyroclastic rocks of the Laziale Volcano. The fact that it has returned to flow after years of drought is an important sign of the restoration of surface water tables, often strained by the scarce rainfall of recent years. 3. Crossroads of Pilgrims and Wayfarers Historically, Fontan Tempesta was an obligatory stop for those traveling the Southern Via Francigena or for pilgrims heading to the Temple of Diana in Nemi. Even today, it is a favorite "turning point" for bikers and hikers because it represents the coolest and most sheltered spot in the forest, where the microclimate remains humid even in the height of summer.

Loop around Lake Albano, on foot or by bike. Very beautiful.

There is a cross made with wood, caferul crossing advised

Very easy and accessible to anyone. No special gear required

Nice spot to make pause and regain energy. Don’t expect water flowing during summer months
