The artificial lake of Pietrafitta was dug up around the year 2000 thanks to the works carried out by ENEL to build an important thermoelectric power plant.
The dimensions of this lake are considerable: it extends for a length of just over two km and a poor width, for a total perimeter of about five kilometers of shore.
Except in rare exceptions, it was not opened to sport fishing until 2009, when FIPSAS (Italian Sport Fishing Federation) in agreement with ENEL, managed to take over this beautiful lake and make it accessible to sport fishing that in fact for some years has hosted the Carp-fishing world championships.
Starting point is the parking lot of the Enel “F. Rasetti Thermoelectric Power Plant”.
