Lago di Scanno
Abruzzo
Lago di Scanno is a glacial lake in a dramatic Apennine setting that, from above, forms a near-perfect heart shape — making it Italy's most romantically photogenic lake. The perimeter path circles the water through reed beds and pine forest with the medieval village of Scanno visible on the ridge above.
