Hiking

Artificial lake and excellent starting point for various excursions ... in summer very crowded with consequent difficulties in parking or finding a place at the picnic area

Hiking

The lake is large and suitable for swimming. On the shore right at the foot of the mountain there is a "not equipped" and inexpensive campsite, which is compulsory to book, especially in the summer season and on weekends. There is also a small bar with resale of essential goods and souvenirs. Two different paths lead up to the Genova refuge: one longer and less steep, also suitable for inexperienced walkers and (with some care) for children and strollers, and the other very steep, but also significantly shorter.
