Fedaia Lake
Facts and practical information
Nestled in the heart of the Dolomites in Italy, Fedaia Lake is a pristine alpine gem that captivates visitors with its tranquil beauty and dramatic mountain backdrop. This natural lake, formed by a dam, sits at an elevation of 2,054 meters above sea level and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.
Surrounded by the rugged peaks of the Marmolada massif, the highest mountain in the Dolomites, Fedaia Lake offers a serene escape into the wilderness. The clear waters reflect the imposing glaciers of Marmolada, creating a stunning visual spectacle that is a photographer's dream.
The lake is accessible during the summer months when the snow and ice have melted, revealing a landscape that is rich in flora and fauna. Hikers can take advantage of the numerous trails that wind around the lake and up into the surrounding mountains, offering varying levels of difficulty and breathtaking vistas.
In addition to hiking, Fedaia Lake is a starting point for mountain biking, fishing, and even ice-skating in the winter when the lake freezes over. The dam itself is a remarkable feat of engineering and provides a unique viewpoint for admiring the lake and the valley below.
