The roughness of the Dolomites and the sweetness of the green meadows, plenty of chances to relax and to be active - this and much more is what the summer in South Tyrol means. We have collected some highlights from this long expected season.
Lake Chiusetta in the Valle Aurina valley is considered one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in the Durreck Group. The 1.5 hour-hike starts at the Klausberg mountain station. The somewhat hidden lake is surrounded by a rather unique mountain backdrop.
Two special lakes are the focal point of this relatively long albeit comfortable mountain tour in the expansive Fanes-Senes-Braies Nature Park: Lake Braies, situated at 1,500 m a.s.l., as well as Lake Colli Alti at 2,250 m a.s.l.
Lake Anterselva is characterised by its crystal clear and turquoise water. It is one of the biggest alpine lakes in South Tyrol - an easy hiking path stretches around it.
Lake Braies, the “Pearl of the Dolomite lakes”, is situated in a unique landscape in the heart of the Braies Dolomites in the Upper Val Pusteria. Its greenish and bluish waters attract many visitors, but it is more than a natural spectacle: it is also a paradise for children and a movie set. Enjoy Lake Braies from above!
The ski and holiday area Rio Pusteria and the Fundres Mountains paint a breathtaking backdrop as we discover quaint pastures as well as a pristine glacial lake which lies at an altitude of 2,350 m: Lago Ponte di Ghiaccio, or Eisbruggsee (which means Ice Bridge Lake).
The reflection of the sun, sparkling on crystal clear water mixed with fresh mountain air, tranquility, a dash of entertainment and nature as far as the eye can see: welcome to Lake Dobbiaco!
The lakes of the Val Pusteria often represent particular points of attraction. The so-called “Pearl of the Dolomite lakes“, Lake Braies, is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful lakes of the valley. In this lake the peaks of the Braies Dolomites reflect. Come on, let’s make a virtual tour from one lake to the next!
