Lake Lucrino is one of the hidden treasures of the Campi Flegrei, a fascinating volcanic region that includes, in addition to Lake Lucrino, Lake Averno, known in mythology as the entrance to the Underworld, Lake Fusaro with its magnificent Casina Vanvitelliana, and Lake Miseno immersed in a landscape of rare beauty in the center of the town of Bacoli. Each lake has its own history, its myths and legends, in few other places in the world can you live an experience that so deeply combines the beauty of nature, history and culture.
In Roman times it was part of the luxurious holiday resorts of the Roman nobles and emperors who built, along the coastal coastline that includes Pozzuoli, Baia and Miseno, villas and residences of great value whose remains can still be seen today, some sunk on the seabed following the bradyseism that has occurred in this area for centuries. There are many thermal springs around Lake Lucrino and, precisely to enjoy the benefits of the thermal waters that flowed from the volcanic subsoil, the Romans built a grandiose thermal complex that today constitutes the Archaeological Park of the Terme di Baia, which I highly recommend you visit.
If you also want to treat yourself to moments of healthy relaxation like a Roman emperor, after the naturalistic and archaeological tour, you can go to one of the thermal complexes that are still found today in the vicinity of Lake Lucrino and Lake D’Averno, to enjoy a wellness experience among pools of hot thermal water, saunas and massages.
