    Once you get under the dam, take the paved road that goes up to the right and not to the left. About 1 km and you can enjoy a splendid view

    Beautiful lake with its dam. The color of the water is spectacular.
    Translated by
    A lake and its evocative history. To build the dam in the 1930s, the village of Morasco was submerged, and the residents were forced to abandon everything. The dam was inaugurated in 1940. It is connected to the lake and the Sabbone Dam by a pipeline that discharges water from a height of 2,500 meters into Lake Morasco.
