Hiking
Elevated position from Pian del Re, reachable along the path behind the Sorgenti del Po, on the left. Beautiful and suggestive alpine lake. The path to reach it is short, but intense (about 15 minutes from Pian del Re), it is an excellent spot to stop, admire the view and to continue in different places, such as the Quintino Sella Refuge. Recommended.
