The Largest Part of "Lago di Cavazzo"/Lake Cavazzo, Also Called "Lago dei Tre Comuni"/Three Municipalities Lake; Trasaghis, Friuli Foothills/Carnic Pre-Alps, FVG, Udine, Italia
06-March-2025
Cavazzo is a sub-mountain lake located at low altitude (190m above sea level), between the Friuli upper plain and the Carnic pre-Alps, with rather still water and rich in vegetation, but the pre-Alpine surroundings make it fascinating and the color of the water resembles that of Alpine lakes.
Being a lake not particularly oxygenated and rather hot in summer, it is inhabited mainly by cyprinids and it is easy to observe Carps (Cyprinus carpio) and Mirror Carps (Cyprinus carpio specularis) at their maximum size, visible especially in the internal pond and in the reeds where they hide and reproduce.
Fishing is prohibited as it is a site intended for reproduction.
It is in a large valley where there is considerable air exchange between the Alpine valleys, the plain and the Adriatic sea, with very abundant precipitation (over 2000mm/year), especially in autumn, frequent and strong thunderstorms, especially from May to September, average temperatures are similar to those of the upper part of the Friuli plain with very little winter snowfall, as per the Friuli plain.
It is a well-kept and touristic place, pleasant for relaxing and breezy walks.
