Located in the San Giuliano regional reserve, which is a protected area located between the municipalities of Matera, Miglionico and Grottole, the dam on the Bradano river was created in the 1950s and is clearly visible from this point. The lake has become an oasis managed by the WWF since the end of the 1980s, while in 2006 part of the fossil skeleton of a whale dating back to the Pleistocene was found on its banks. The lake itself extends for almost ten square kilometers.

Pure Relaxation - It presents indications of a hypothetical cycle/pedestrian route, but with sections that are actually not very practicable and cared for. MTB advice.

Wildlife oasis and excellent place to rest after a few kilometers of cycling.
