Lago Vivo
Abruzzo National Park
Description
The Lago vivo is the only lake in the PNALM of natural origin. At this time of year when the snow starts to melt it offers unique shows of games between snow, ice and water really exciting. The path then winds through the beautiful beech woods of the Park in an area populated by deer that is easy to meet even in winter.
Continuing the excursion after the lake, you can then get to the top of Lake Vivo where nature offers us special scenarios. A trip not to be missed!
