Lakes

Small but mighty lakes characterise the landscape of Alta Badia

Not only rugged peaks and gentle hills characterise the landscape of Alta Badia, but also some mighty lakes.

One of these lakes is Lake Lagazuoi (Lago di Lagazuoi), a lake that is rich in fish, located 3 km in the south east of San Cassiano. It is situated at the border of the provinces of Belluno and Alto Adige, as well as along the Dolomite high path n° 1 and the path that leads from Capanna Alpina to Lagazuoi. The striking mountain that towers above the lake is Cima da Lago. This lake is also a popular hiking destination.

There is also the biotope lake Soscofes, which is perfectly suitable for a jump into its cool waters during summer months.
Another water surface called lake Sompunt is located a 20 minutes' walk from La Villa.

A real jewel, however, is lake Boè located near the mountain station of the Boè funicular. This lake has got a perfect circular shape and seems to have no inlets or outlets.
