A precious pearl in a more precious treasure chest.

 

Lake Molveno is the second  biggest of the lakes in the Trentino region, for area and depth. This bathing resort, with its incredible variety of colours, is 4.5km long, 1.5 km wide with a maximum depth of 124 metres.  What first strikes visitors is its limpid water, the Brenta peaks and the slopes of the Paganella Tableland. An extraordinary exchange of  blue and green shading invites a confusing glance of  the water and  lakeside.  Woods of maple, dogwood, hazelnut, and birch trees seem to dive into the lake and emerge with the shore. The ichthyic richness of the lake’s ecosystem  -  a natural habitat for perch, marble trout, and brook trout is the result of local care  over the centuries.
