Yes, plenty of views of the lovely lake but let's be honest, the road itself is in terrible condition and drivers think they are on the F1 Circuit.

Capranica is a village in Tuscia, built on a tuff cliff between the Cimini Mountains and the Mignone River valley. Its origins are Etruscan, but the center we see today retains its medieval charm, with narrow streets, arches, ancient gates, and evocative churches such as that of Santa Maria Maddalena. Hazelnut groves, olive groves, and woods extend all around, creating a distinctive landscape. It's a pleasant stop on the Via Francigena, where history and nature meet in an authentic and welcoming atmosphere.

The Anfiteatro Romano in Sutri is an impressive archaeological monument carved entirely out of tuff. Built between the late 2nd century B.C. and the early 1st century AD, this amphitheater represents the heart of the Sutri identity. It has an elliptical shape and could accommodate about 7000 spectators. The amphitheater is divided into three rows of seats, separated for different social classes. There are two entrances: one overlooking Via Cassia, and the other, higher up, with a covered walkway. The amphitheater was partially excavated between 1835 and 1838. There are only two other amphitheaters in the world that are completely carved into the rock, in Cagliari and Leptis Magna (Libya).

The Chiesa della Madonna del Parto in Sutri is a unique church carved entirely out of tuff stone. Dating from the 13th-14th centuries, this church was originally a Mithraeum, a temple dedicated to the Eastern god Mithras, from the 3rd century. The church has a square vestibule with frescoes depicting the Madonna and Saints, San Cristoforo and events related to the life of San Michele del Gargano. The main space is divided by tuff pillars into three naves. The church is now an important part of the urban park of the ancient city of Sutri.

The Bosco delle Valli looks like a very dense oak forest, it is located in the territory of Vetralla, in the province of Viterbo, in southern Etruria, or better known as Tuscia. It extends over an area close to the two small towns of La Pietrara and Le Valli, two hamlets of Vetralla, but also a short distance from the small center of Villa San Giovanni in Tuscia. It is also known by the name Bosco della Folgore where the Church of the Madonna della Folgore stands [Coordinates: 42°17'28"N 12°4'25"E] hence the name.
