Elevation difference is about 150 m. Lake Carezza awards you with a breathtaking view.
In front of you lies Lake Carezza and reflects both the Dolomites mountains of the Eggental on its surface, the Rosengarten in the North and the Latemar in the South. Since 2009, both these mountains together with the Sciliar have been included in the system of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage.
Continue your hike to Lake Carezza. The best time to visit Lake Carezza is in the morning and evening, when the water surface is calm.
Lake Carezza changes its color with the daylight. It owes its crystal clear colors to its underground inlet and outlet, as well as to the rainwater. The light can thus penetrate to a depth of 13m and is reflected by the bright lake bottom in emerald green turquoise and blue colors. The spruce and the Dolomite mountains of Rosengarten and Latemar reflect and enrich the colorfulness of the water surface with bright, warm, glowing and golden colors.
