The water is clear and cold, of an intense green-blue colour; in an island, wreck of a morainic area, partly destroyed, partly submerge, create an evocative landscape.
A legend tells that many times ago instead of the lake there was a small village. The inhabitants were insensitive people and during a cold night of winter refuse to give hospitality to a woman and her child come from far away.
Only a poor family offered a warm place and lavish attention on the woman and her son. The morning after the lake submerged the whole village but a small island with the house of the hospitable family, while the woman and her son were disappeared.
Activities:
In the lake is realized a nautical-bathing establishment equipped with a beach area, nautical equipment (rowboats, sailboats, pedalos, surf bikes and kayaks), playground for kids and a windsurf school.
