Splendid path in the middle of nature. Single track downhill and uphill. View of the castle and the church of Naro.

Very nice place to visit (I personally ride it in mtb) 11 km in the middle of nature among trees and birds.
The basin was built between 1969 and 1981 and intended for the collection of water from the Naro river. The dam blocks the course of the river about 20 km from the mouth, and is located in Stretta del Molino San Giovanni. It is connected with the Furore dam, also in the territory of Naro and built by blocking the path of the Grancifone stream (or Burraito river), a tributary of the Naro river.

Its waters are mainly used for irrigation of the neighboring countryside. The dam is surrounded by a forest often a destination for tourists, especially on holidays.

In the past it was used as a facility for rowing competitions, from this point of view it experienced its moment of maximum splendor in 1991 when the XVI European rowing championships were held in the dam.

The forest of the Naro dam or Lake S.Giovanni and my route. For more than 20 years it has been looked after by me to make it a safe and fun route to traverse. The paths make a complete circuit around the immense lake and the woods
