Lago di San Ruffino, Amandola

Marche

The San Ruffino dam backs the Tenna into a quiet lake between Amandola and Servigliano, with an oratory on a spur above it and the whole Sibillini wall — Priora, Sibilla, Vettore — rising beyond the water. A flat path and boardwalk make a gentle circuit, good for herons and dragonflies.
