The lake is up a narrow mountain road at times not big enough for two cars but it well wort the short trip. Just before the lake there’s a nice little museum with interesting information about the local fauna. The lake is very peaceful with several hiking trail starting from it. Right on the lake there’s a full restaurant and a bar where we bought sandwiches. We then sat on the grass right by the lake.

This little lake is one of the best fly fishing spots in Northern Italy. It is stocked regularly with German Brown and Rainbow Trout during the summer months and is easily accessible from the town of Pellizzano in the Val di Sole. Note: The road from Pellizzano to the lake is steep and a bit narrow.

The lake is fed by several small streams and springs that flow from the Brenta Dolomites. If you are new to Italy, here's a few tips:

1) Purchase a license (mandatory) in Pellizzano at the Bar Centrale.
2) Come early and leave late.
3) There is paid parking and free parking, if you don't mind a walk.
4) The month of August is a total zoo and should be avoided.
5) Most high mountain fly patterns work well here including nymphs in sizes 16 to 12.
6) 4 to 6 weight rods recommended along with waders.
7) The lake is open to catch and release and catch and kill. (check limit regulations - usually 5)
8) The lakeside restaurant is only open in peak summer months; bring a lunch.
9) There are numerous picknic tables and grassy fields to eat in as well.
10) Check the regulations as the outfall stream is only leagally fished down to the stone bridge.

Buona Fortuna!

We really loved this place. Came here just before sunset, so we could park right near the lake and we were the only people there. The lake is very small (you can hike around it in less than 30 minutes) but it is beautiful from every angle. Well worth the trip.

Very small lake - took us less than an hour to go around it. There are more hicking trails around it but we didn't have time. It's a nice place to visit in the afternoon, if you are tired from the day's activities. But no need to spend time to specially vist it.

It's wonderful. Relaxing view of the lake with amazing trees and green leaves all around, and you only hear the sound of the nearby waterfalls. There are even several fountains you can get fresh water from. Don't miss it, and bring a book with you to enjoy some relaxing time up there!
