The Lago delle Piane is an artificial reservoir located in the Municipality of Masserano but reachable via a beautiful dirt road from the hamlet of Scalabrino in the Municipality of Casapinta. Very secluded and the only access is the dirt road of about 2 km from the hamlet of Scalabrino, on the opposite side is the Acqua dam, an impoundment dam reachable by car from the Municipality of Masserano. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lago_delle_Piane
