Small lake under Mount Camino. Very rich in frogs and tadpoles. Some information: The Camino lake is located south of Mount Camino, between Colle della Barma and La Ceva. The environment in which it is located is of glacial origin, characterized by small overexcavation basins between the humps of the smooth rocks. The glacial imprint can be traced back to the various Pleistocene glacial impulses and in particular to the last impulse and subsequent regression. The landscape modeled by glacial activity was then taken up and modified in detail by the erosion of the runoff waters, by the cryoclastic action that splits and crumbles the rocks and by the nivation processes. The lake is in an advanced evolutionary phase with shallow waters and boulders on the bottom, it is partly bordered by vegetation, it is enriched with sediments and is destined to become a peat bog and then to be completely buried.

At 2020 meters, Lake Barma (or Balma) is a lake of glacial origin sunken between the Gragliasca peak, Lei Long and Balma d’Oropa on the left, Mont Mars and Monte Rosso on the right, and the Balma d’Oropa hill in front. With 31,320 square meters of extension, it is the largest lake included in the Mont Mars Nature Reserve. On its shores, from the second half of June, rhododendrons, mountain lilies, round cotton grasses, mountain arnica and wild orchids bloom.

waterfalls of the Oropa stream on the path to Mucrone

Between the sanctuary of Oropa and the Rosazza refuge, at this point you can see a small but pretty waterfall of the Oropa stream. The water flows between several boulders to create a truly remarkable play of colors and reflections.

Convenient road from the sanctuary, beautiful to look at and cool to rinse off

This beautiful lake is located at the foot of the Mont Mars Nature Reserve. From its banks Punta Leretta, Punta Figlieu, Mount Mars, Mount Rosso, the Lei Long and Gragliasca peaks and Mount Pietra Bianca are visible. It's a nice place to take a break on your mountain run with a breathtaking view. The paths in this area are mostly free of technical difficulties and easy to follow while running.

Lake easily accessible from Fontainemore or coumarial. For the more lazy there is a jeep shuttle service departing from Fontainemore
