Lagolo is part of the municipality of Calavino and it is located in the Valle dei Laghi valley. Shaped by glacial erosion, the small karstic lake is in a green grassy basin surrounded by age-old beech trees. The people here believe that its water feature therapeutic properties for skin diseases.
In the winter, the lake is a popular ice-skating venue and in the summer you can swim and sunbathe in the beautiful meadows along the shore.
According to an old legend, the lake, which used to be in a higher position, got magically lowered down to hide the thick forest which is still visible underwater.
