The gist of the ascent to the lake is from Fondovalle (but first there are the hairpin bends, which are tough). The first 4km are a warm-up with minimal gradients until the hydroelectric power station. From there the story changes until the waterfall bar. After that the road flattens out (except for a few dozen metres at 6%) until Riale. At the end of the valley, take the small road on the right, which after 800m very steep leads to Lake Morasco... read more

La sostanza della salita al lago è da Fondovalle ( prima però ci sono i tornanti che sono duri). I primi 4km sono un riscaldamento con pendenze minime fino alla centrale idroelettrica. Da lì la storia cambia fino al bar della Cascata. Dopo la strada spiana (salvo Quale decina di metri al 6%) fino a Riale. In fondo alla valle prendere la stradina sulla destra che dopo 800m molto pendenti porta al lago morasco
