  • Lovely lake, very picturesque, and great to see at low-level or from higher viewpoints on the road up to Sauris or beyond. Can rent boats or go for walks in the hills around.

  • A great destination to visit❤️‍🔥
  • Impressive and fantastic color of the lake!
  • One of the best Lago in FVG
  • Great lake to swim at!
  • An artificial lake located at about 1000 meters above sea level in the heart of Carnia. The colors are a bright turquoise which, in this period, contrast with the autumn foliage. We advise you to cross the bridge by car, drive through the tunnel and leave your car when the road begins to narrow. There you can take pleasant walks around the lake and immersed in nature. @iviaggidiema
