Lake Paduli – 1154 mslm

Lake Paduli, is located in the Tuscan municipality of Comano, a few hundred meters from the borders with the provinces of Parma and Reggio Emilia, where the Ducati Trail leaves Emilia to enter Lunigiana.

The lake has an elongated shape in a north-south direction and it is almost 1500 meters long. It has a maximum width of 340 meters and a maximum depth of 18 meters. Moreover it was formed following the construction in 1911 of a dam on the Enza stream for the electricity generation.

The lake offers a suggestive view and around it one can observe the remnants of the pastures that once occupied the entire basin and which generated centuries-old disputes between the shepherds of the various Duchies converging here (from Parma and Tuscany). In late spring, flowering is spectacular right up to the banks, but even in late autumn the colors of the beech forest and juniper shrubs that dot the pastures give life to a breathtaking scenery.
