Hiking
Lake Pirola is a picturesque artificial lake accessible from the Gerli-Porro Refuge along a trail that crosses scree slopes and stretches where the trail merges with the rocks (markings are present but not always visible; be careful).
The lake is surrounded by Alpine scenery and can be skirted along a scenic trail.
