Lago di Braies, Italy: Wanderlust Wednesday

October 12, 2016

I have to admit – I didn’t know Lago di Braies existed until a couple of days ago. I saw one photo of this beautiful lake and began scrolling for 20 minutes through photos. By the end of my destination stalk, I knew I couldn’t let another Wanderlust Wednesday pass without sharing this beautiful place with you all!

Lago di Braies (Pragser Wilds in German) is located in Northeastern Italy in the Dolomites in South Tyrol. It requires a bit of hiking to get to, but it seems worth the trek. I mean, did you know such bright turquoise water and stunning mountains existed?

  1. The color of the water reminds me of Joffre Lakes close to Whistler in Canada. I think it is because it is from glaciers? Not sure if that is the case here? But regardless that is so beautiful!

  2. This looks absolutely stunning! A different side of Italy than what we’re normally used to seeing. Must get over there someday! 🙂

    WOW! I am sold on this magic. I’ve actually never heard of it – but with photos like that, I can see why anyone would be drawn to it. Do you know more about this place and are you planning to visit?

  4. Wowsers, adding this to my must-see list right away!! We visited Italy over the summer but didn’t make it that far North – I think we clearly missed out!
