    An artificial lake with an oblong shape that bathes the provinces of Cosenza, Catanzaro and Crotone, Lake Ampollino was the first artificial reservoir to be created in Sila. The construction of the barrage began in 1916 and ended in 1927. It has two main tributaries, the Ampollino and Savuto rivers. On the banks of the lake a small tourist area was born over the years including the Sila villages of Trepidò, Villaggio Palumbo Sila, Caprara, Villaggio Baffa, Villaggio Lopez and Villaggio Belcastro.

        All in all, well-maintained roads, very few cars and always gentle slopes make the lake and its surroundings very fun for racing bikes.
