Beautiful

A very beautiful location in the Apennine mountains. A fantastic stop for photo opportunities at the base of the quaint Abruzzese town of Barrea.

Excellent view from Brrea

It's small lake but the view from Brrea is fantastic. We were there at fall so it was to cold to jump to the lake. Brrea is very small town and I think it's better to take hotel in other place in the area.

Awesome activity center & amazing restaurant

I had such an awesome adventure at Bar Lido La Gravara! I would go back and visit again in a heartbeat. Lago di Barrea looks to be right out of a postcard. Emerald green water, views of the mountains and of the town of Barrea,...More

We happened upon Lake Barrea and decided to stop, I am so glad we did, the lake has several stone beaches with easy free parking just a stroll from the shore. We swam in the cool waters and marvelled at the view of the surrounding...More

Blue water with trout

In a sunny day we visited that place. In the shore you are able to find a good restaurant. One bridge cross over the lake. Good place for relax or swim or walking. The landscape also beautiful.

Great lake with astonishing view

We have tried many places around the lake. The first was on the northern side, a beach with sand, plenty of space, but in August too many people. In August we went on the other side, close to the Camping Colle Ciglio, where you can...More
