Family-friendly hike to the mysterious Mittersee, which appears only for a short time in spring – with a detour to the Lake Carezza and the suspension bridge.

Did you know that Lake Carezza has a little brother? It is the Mittersee | Lago di Mezzo – a hidden natural gem in the forest that only exists for a short time in spring (around May-June depending on the weather). During this period, a meadow transforms into a lake filled with icy meltwater at just 8°C. By July, however, it usually disappears without a trace. As long as it is there, the Mittersee | Lago di Mezzo is considered a true natural spectacle and an insider tip. The bravest even dare to jump into the refreshing water or take a little ride on the raft. This family-friendly hike not only leads to the mysterious Mittersee | Lago di Mezzo, but also to the famous Lake Carezza and the suspension bridge – with magnificent views of the Rosengarten | Catinaccio and Latemar mountains along the way.
