Worth to visit in October if you are planning to travel around Dolomites. Summer may be better with more water but Oct is also not bad. Good for family with kids or tourists who prefer short walk...

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed it. It's a beautiful clean lake. You can rent a boat. It is also possible to follow a hiking route around the lake. I advise everyone to Nearby there is a restaurant and tourist shops, paid parking and toilets.

I've had this on my bucket list for a long time and I'm glad it lived up to the hype in reality! It is one of the most beautiful lakes I've seen in the Dolomites. Gorgeous scenery and clear waters. Very picturesque. This place is popular for a reason. There is plenty of parking there (8 euros), but still gets full. I would recommend arriving super early or around sunset to avoid the crowds and tourist groups. There are walks/hikes around the lake and there is a cafe for some food, drinks and toilets. It's great on a sunny day! If you go and it is cloudy and bad weather, it is worth trying it another day.
