The (reservoir) lake of Cingoli, less than 20 minutes away from us, is the largest lake in central Italy. It lies at the foot of the San Viceno, the mountain peak that dominates our entire area and that you can see rising everywhere. The lake is in the middle of a nature reserve and is of breathtaking beauty. Until well into spring, you can see the snow-capped peaks of the Apennines rising above the lake. The water is clear blue and in summer it is a great place to do some swimming, boating or pedal boating.
At Lago di Cingoli, you will find two (beach) tents, where you can park and rent an umbrella:
- La Baia di Popeye (edan.io) (lively with some loud music, a riser and pedal boat hire)
- Arcobaleno Beach (quiet place with basic menu)
Tip: Combine your trip to the lake with a visit to the town of Cingoli, also called "the balcony of Le Marche" for its stunning views.
