Home $ OUT OF TURIN $ Lakes of Canavese $ Maglione lake

A small lake in a peaceful rural setting

The Maglione lake is located in the village of Maglione, in a quiet area of Canavese characterized by gentle hills and rural landscapes. Like many lakes in the region, it is of glacial origin, formed during the last Ice Age within the Ivrea morainic amphitheatre, creating a small and scenic natural environment.

Over time, the lake has remained closely connected to the surrounding agricultural landscape, made up of fields and small villages. Unlike larger tourist destinations, Lago di Maglione retains a peaceful and authentic atmosphere.

Today, it is an ideal destination for those looking to explore a quieter side of Canavese. Its simplicity and calm setting make it perfect for relaxation and enjoying nature.
