Beautiful views and lakes in Dolomites for 3 days

Lago di Carezza is one of the many lakes of the Dolomites in Italy. But what makes this relatively small lake special? It is certainly its location, which gives you amazing views not only of the lake itself, but especially of the surrounding Alps. The lake is about 20 kilometres from the town of Bolzano. So if you’re heading to the area, especially in summer, Lago di Carezza should not be missing from your itinerary.

The entire lake can be circumnavigated in a few minutes on a simple trail. However, if you arrive during the peak summer season, be prepared for huge crowds and probably a parking problem. We therefore recommend arriving either early in the morning or later in the afternoon or evening. Simply don’t be put off by the crowds, as the lake and the views are well worth it.

Rifugio Fronza alle Coronelle (Kölner Hütte) is a mountain hut in the Dolomites in northern Italy, located at an altitude of 2,339 metres in the province of South Tyrol, near the Coronelle Pass. The hut can be reached by various hiking trails, for example from the village of Carezza/Karersee or from the top station of the Paolina cable car. If you want to save some time and especially calories, you can easily reach the top by taking the Carezza Dolomites cable car from the town of Nova Levante.

The location of the chalet offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Dolomites, famous for its rock formations and varied Alpine flora. Rifugio Fronza alle Coronelle is a popular destination for hikers and climbers to experience the beauty and adventure of this unique mountain range, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In fact, there are several beautiful ferrata in the area that should not be missed as an adventurer.

Near the summit you will find, for example, the beautiful Lago di Carezza, which we definitely recommend visiting.

Brixen (Italian: Bressanone) is a town in northern Italy, located in the province of South Tyrol. It lies in the valley of the Eisack River, surrounded by Alpine peaks, which provides breathtaking scenery and the opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty of the region. The town is easily accessible, close to the main transport arteries, and well connected to the surrounding towns and villages. This makes Brixen a popular starting point for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, who can take advantage of its proximity to the Dolomites for hiking, skiing in winter and other sporting activities in the beautiful Alpine countryside. Nearby are, for example, Seceda, Lago di Carezza and it is also a nice stop on the way to Lago di Garda.

Brixen is rich in history and culture, as evidenced by its medieval monuments, narrow cobbled streets and beautiful buildings. Brixen Cathedral dominates the town and, together with the Bishop’s Palace and other historic buildings, creates a unique atmosphere.
