ポッジャルドの湖・トップ2

Romantic, rocky bay. Two bars, sometimes with loud music, parking.

Red Martian soil painted by the setting sun

a must-see

An abandoned bauxite quarry that became famous thanks to the exciting red-green chromatic contrast generated by the red earth rich in iron present on its sides and the spring water oxidized by the bauxite on the bottom that forms a perennial lake. Suggestive. In the summer months, access for a visit is subject to a fee.

One of those places that must be safeguarded and protected given the biodiversity present. Anyone who approaches this type of reality must be aware of trampling on naturalistic rarities. Maximum respect

The lake offers a truly suggestive panorama: the green of the water rich in bauxite and minerals contrasts with the intense red of the surrounding land.

Good surefootedness required, but it's really fun.😀

A corner of Puglia that you don't expect. Far from the roar of the sea there is this small oasis of peace born following the progressive abandonment of the Bauxite quarry. At the end of the 70s the mineral extraction operations stopped and the water began to filter inside the quarry forming the lake. In fact, it is precisely the presence of the mineral that gives the intense colors of this place: the red of the clayey earth and the emerald green of the lake waters.
