Among the three large Calabrian lakes of the Sila, the Ampollino is certainly the least contaminated and consequently the most authentic to be appreciated by lovers of nature and landscapes.

In summer, you can take advantage of numerous cycling routes that lead through diverse landscapes - from mountain spruce forests to water areas of lakes. In winter, the area is home to the Camigliatello Silano ski resort, which attracts skiing and winter sports enthusiasts with its well-prepared facilities and picturesque location in the Sila massif. This is a place more for local skiing enthusiasts and beginners who want to combine active recreation with a vacation in the warm climate of Calabria. If you are looking for more serious skiing routes, you have to go further north in Italy or to the Alps. In Calabria, on the other hand, you will certainly appreciate nature, peace and a unique mountain climate.

The Ampollino Valley is surrounded by the mountains of the Sila massif, with clearly distinguishable peaks: Scorciavuoi (1627 m above sea level), Gariglione (1623 m above sea level), Zingomarro (1463 m above sea level) and Monte Nero (1747 m above sea level). There are extensive pine, beech and fir forests here, creating a Mediterranean mountain landscape characteristic of the region. The central element of the valley is the artificial reservoir Lago Ampollino, created by a dam (diga) on the Ampollino River. The shores of the lake are overgrown with reed beds and water lilies, and in the area you can see wild animals - deer, wild boars, waterfowl and birds of prey.

An artificial lake with an oblong shape that bathes the provinces of Cosenza, Catanzaro and Crotone, Lake Ampollino was the first artificial reservoir to be created in Sila. The construction of the barrage began in 1916 and ended in 1927. It has two main tributaries, the Ampollino and Savuto rivers. On the banks of the lake a small tourist area was born over the years including the Sila villages of Trepidò, Villaggio Palumbo Sila, Caprara, Villaggio Baffa, Villaggio Lopez and Villaggio Belcastro.

All in all, well-maintained roads, very few cars and always gentle slopes make the lake and its surroundings very fun for racing bikes.

Very large and little anthropized lake. It almost seems like an abandoned place, but in reality in high season it is quite busy. Nearby there are several farmhouses.
