The Völser Weiher lake is nestled in the heart of the unique landscape of the Schlern-Rosengarten nature reserve, and has been designated a “Vela Blu” lake, testifying to the outstanding cleanliness of its waters, since 2017. It is a wonderful destination to take a dip on hot summer days, and also doubles up as an ice skating lake in winter: Whatever the season, this spot in the deep green forests at the foot of the Schlern never fails to offer visitors an idyllic experience.
This walk is pram-friendly.
