The Northern Appennino mountain range has some peculiarities, has a lot of forests, it's rains much more then the rest of the nation, the peaks are covered with blueberries, the Bluebarry bush is kinda world champion when it comes to encrease the reds of your foliage pic, but in order to find it you gotta hike up the slope.

Photography Tips

The hike to the lake is beautifull all year long, but if you want it red dressed September is the moment.
