로카 디 메조‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

You start from Cartore and take two trails: the first, a bit challenging, is 2.5 hours long, and the second, easier, is about 4 hours long. I chose the 2.5-hour trail and recommend it for those in good shape! Once you reach your destination, you're surrounded by this wonderful view of Lake Duchessa and the surrounding mountains, including Monte Murolungo, whose majestic presence is hard to miss.

Very beautiful place with the lake that mirrors the surrounding mountains. The lake is inhabited by the Crested Newt.

The Duchess Lake, of karst origin, located at 1788m. above sea level, it is a natural basin of the central Apennines. The lake is not fed by its own springs or by a river and the water level is linked to meteorological factors (rain and snow).

Is it also possible with gravel? Can October be considered as a period to do it?

Done many times, as well as with cross-country skis, also with Mtb. Enchanting scenery both in summer and in winter as someone has already commented. Did it again just yesterday in Mtb, and we'll do it again, and again 🚴🏻‍♀️😎✌🏾

The "Fonte degli Innamorati", where the water flows down following the profile of the rock and the grass. Here you can stop for a break before continuing.

Deep incision with overhanging stone walls up to 200 m high. Entering the Celano Gorges will be accessing a crystallized world, where trees, stone and time are masters.

a really nice lake to rest
