Hidden Gem of Italy

The Dolomites – Hidden Gem of Italy

Lake Tovel is a beautiful alpine lake surrounded by the stunning mountain peaks of the Brenta Dolomites.

The lake is known for its unique color, which can range from deep blue to bright red depending on the time of year and the weather conditions. The red color is caused by a specific type of algae that blooms in the lake during the summer months.

Lake Tovel is a popular destination for hikers, as there are many trails that lead through the surrounding mountains and forests. One of the most popular trails is the Tovel Lake Loop, which is a 3.7-mile hike that offers stunning views of the lake and the surrounding landscape.

In addition to hiking, you can also enjoy boating, swimming, and bathing in the sun on several lake's beaches. There are also picnic areas and campgrounds located around the lake, making it a popular destination for families.
