Panoramic point

Mountain lake full of life and nestled in a fantastic plateau.

Mount Nuria with its 1,888 meters of height is one of the most important reliefs of the Cicolano mountains. It is a peak that can be reached at any time of the year. In winter it is always better to bring a pair of crampons with you to be able to overcome the steepest and often icy final part. There are many itineraries to reach the top, the simplest and best marked is the one that goes up from Borgo Velino. Coming from the Rascino plains, the walk is certainly splendid but very long.

Lake Rascino can be reached with an easy walk from the Tracerna farmhouse. The karst lake is located at 1,146 meters. It is an ideal destination for finding fresh air on hot summer days, or for a pleasant winter walk when the lake turns into a large sheet of ice.

The dirt road that climbs from the Rascino lake to this panoramic point is steep and stony but it is worth pushing the bicycle up here. The breathtaking view of the small cornino basin and the pine grove, of the Rascino plateau on the opposite side and the peace that the landscape exudes are worth every drop of sweat.

In the heart of the Cicolano mountains, the Rascino plateau is one of the hidden pearls of Lazio. This vast karst basin is located over 1000 meters above sea level and is completely surrounded by mountains. The lake of the same name can be circumnavigated by following a path that is at times not very clear and which, after a heavy rain, can be very muddy. Here the Rascino lentil (Slow Food presidium) is grown, which on flowering days offers a magnificent palette of colours.

Here cows and horses graze in the green meadows surrounded by mountains.

Lake Rascino is a karst mountain lake and is the perfect place for a short stop to admire the surrounding landscape.
