In the heart of Valcellina, a bright green pool of water welcomes visitors to the sunny basin of Barcis.
The orography of these mountains offers the expanse of landscapes in the backdrop of woods and waters that meet in the wide reservoir of Lake Aprilis.
This stretch of water lends itself well to water sports, which find an unmissable location for them to be practiced surrounded by the natural setting of the Friulian Pre-Alps.
Sailing, surfing, canoeing, and kayaking are just some of the disciplines of choice at this lake. The tranquillity of the shores and the widespread network of trails and bicycle paths make it an ideal setting for trekking and cycling enthusiasts, as well as for families thanks to the equipped areas capable of providing some peaceful hours of relaxation.
A short distance from Barcis, the Cellina Gorge Nature Reserve offers the chance to visit one of the most interesting gorge environments on the entire peninsula. The route runs along the old road connecting with the plain, overlooking huge water potholes and incredibly smooth rocks.
The Prescudin Forest, a nature reserve of regional interest, only a short distance from Barcis, allows visiting an unspoiled and wild scenery, admirably also maintained thanks to the restriction of entry of motor vehicles to the forest; well away from the noise of daily life, nature awaits you.
