Hiking
Lake Baranca is located at the foot of Alpe Selle, where there are the remains of Villa Aprilia (or Lancia). During the Second World War this place saw men, women and children flee persecution, headed for Switzerland, as well as bloody clashes between partisans and Nazi-fascist troops.
Nowadays, however, it is a very popular destination for hikers.

Hiking
Artificial lake located at 1800 meters altitude. Here you can clearly see the traces of global warming. The lake is just a drop of what it once was. Know that many mosquitoes here find you very contagious. When getting acquainted, it is best to use an insect spray.
