Tips

SERENISSIMA

September 2, 2024

Dam immersed in the narrow gorge of the Cismon torrent, completed in 1953. Crossable, cycle/pedestrian. Pleasant walk with a view and the peculiarity of ending right inside a small tunnel in the rock, which then connects to the road to Corlo, very steep!

The Corlo dam (which takes its name from the village above) was built in the years 1951-53 to dam the Cismon stream and form the artificial lake, for hydroelectric use. The area occupied today by the basin was once known as the 'Ligònt plain': a fertile area, almost entirely cultivated with corn cobs and tobacco, with several inhabited hamlets. With the construction of the dam, many towns were forcibly abandoned, demolished and submerged; others, on the eastern side, found themselves isolated from the world and soon depopulated too.

This civil engineering work amazes for its dizzying height of 71m, for the construction expertise thanks to which it slips into the mountain and for the view of the very narrow Cismon canyon. The crown of the dam can also be explored by car: after the tunnel, a very narrow and winding asphalt road ends in Contrà Corlo. When the bulkheads are raised, the power of the waterfall coming down the discharge chute is impressive and spectacular!
