Lago di Sirio, Ivrea

Piedmont

Lago Sirio is a small glacial lake on the edge of Ivrea — the city that became a model of industrial welfare under Adriano Olivetti and his typewriter company. The lake circuit passes through reeds with herons; Ivrea's extraordinary orange-battle carnival (historical rethrow of a medieval uprising) happens in February.
