Tiny wild strawberries from the volcanic lakes south of Rome. A springtime jewel.
Plan your Italy trip →The town of Nemi, perched above a volcanic crater lake in the Castelli Romani, is famous for its tiny, intensely flavored wild strawberries (fragoline di bosco). During the sagra, the main street fills with stalls selling fresh strawberry cups, strawberry gelato, strawberry tarts, strawberry liqueur, and strawberries with cream (fragole con panna). The setting — a medieval hilltop town overlooking a sapphire lake — makes this the most scenic strawberry experience imaginable.
