Lake of Castel dell’Alpi
admin September 28th, 2007
The small town of “Castel dell’Alpi” is located between Bologna and Florence, in the appennines, in the Comune of San Benedetto val di Sambro, counting about 4000 people.
It is an artificial lake, and it’s quite popular in the nearby area during the summer. It is possible to take short boat trips and do pic-nic on the fields nearby. It is easy to reach from Bologna, taking the highway and exiting in “Pian del Voglio”. We went there some years ago and was very crowded, hard even to find a parking place!
In the photo below you can see it, and in the distance the main bridge passing over it.
