Top 14 Lakes around Borno

Lake Lova is a picturesque hiking destination located above Borno, on the Altopiano del Sole plateau in Val Camonica. It is appreciated for its alpine landscape, tranquility, and the variety of surrounding trails. The lake is located at approximately 1,392 meters above sea level and can be reached via several hiking trails, including the Sentiero della Memoria (Path of Remembrance) that starts from the church of San Fiorino in Borno. After a short paved stretch to the Trattoria Navertino, you take a dirt path that winds through larch and fir trees, with steep sections and slippery cobblestones. The hike is immersed in a natural environment typical of the Lombard Prealps, with natural fountains and good cell phone coverage. A longer alternative is the Monte Mignone – Lake Lova circular hike, approximately 11.1 km long with an elevation gain of 837 meters, to be done counterclockwise. This route offers spectacular views and passes through pastures and woods, with the lake as its focal point. Lake Lova is also a hub for other trails: from here, you can continue towards the San Fermo Refuge or the Laeng Refuge, following CAI trails 106 and 182. Parking is available near the lake, making it accessible even for less experienced hikers. Scenically, the lake is nestled in a green valley surrounded by woods and pastures, with calm waters reflecting the sky and surrounding mountains. It's an ideal destination in all seasons, but particularly captivating in autumn due to the colorful foliage.

A place of haunting beauty, steeped in history and memories. Walking at the foot of the Gleno Dam is a deeply moving experience. In my video, I recount the history and emotion of this place. Watch it for the full adventure: https://youtu.be/xOmoTKIHDm0

wonderful place but better to avoid crowded periods

nice hike near Vilminore

A place with a wonderful panorama, with a fantastic view of the Concarena massif. In autumn, since the sun is low and hides behind the mountain massif, it creates enchanting plays of light and shadow. Easy to reach, it is in fact just a few meters from the Cimon Bagozza refuge, reachable by car. Suitable for everyone, including children and the elderly

Located at 381 m.a.s.l. in the basin between the Sorline area of Angolo Terme and the Capo di Lago hamlet of Darfo Boario Terme, Lago Moro is surrounded by lush nature. The basin welcomes us with its transparent waters, made dark and mysterious by the profiles of the vegetation.

I visited Gleno lake a few years ago and I have to say that the trip was worth all its time! In addition to the beautiful natural setting, the history that the Gleno dam contains (a human failure) must be passed on to future generations so that it never happens again.
