Alpine lakes are a resource for mountain towns, as they act as our water reservoirs. Here in Livigno, lakes fill up in the Spring, when the snow melts, and their colours are amazing. From Caribbean turquoise to deep sea green. If you love lakes, you can’t miss our selection:
The conformation and dark composition of its bed gives the name to this alpine lake, where peace and quiet reign supreme.
The Vedre'ta Vedretta. It is a glacier that forms into small basins or on steep slopes. In the Municipality of Livigno, there are many formations like this, in the southernmost region, close to the Bernina Group glaciers.
Beautiful alpine lake with the same-name masonry hut that can accommodate 8 people. The hut was made by bringing the materials required for its constructions up the steep trails with the motorcycle, between the summers of 1974 and 1977.
First, take the Val Ne’ira trail, pass the Val Ne’ira waterfalls and remain on the right side until you see the Vale’ta in front of you. The trail is easy at first, and it gets harder in the last uphill section, until you reach the Vale’ta alpine lakes at 2,593 meters above the sea level.
Alpine lakes at high altitude with pure and fresh water. Located one next to the other, on the ridge between Italy and Switzerland, they are a popular destination for half-day hikes.
With its incredible turquoise colour, the Vago lake will win you over. The lake gets its peculiar colour from copper phosphate. Take the most colourful picture of your vacation here.
