Did you know that the Lake Carezza...?

....is 300 metres long, 140 metres wide and up to 22 metres deep?
...is protected under law and lies at 1,520 metres above sea level?
...is fed by underground springs in the Latemar mountains, meaning its size and depth changes with the weather and the seasons?
...is home to a statue of the legendary nymph Ondina? She can be found perched on a rock in the middle of the lake and only appears when the water level is low.
...reflects the Latemar and Rosengarten/Catinaccio mountains early in the morning, when the peaks dance on the surface of the water?
...has drawn famous names to the region including Winston Churchill and Empress Elisabeth of Austria-Hungary?
...is in the Ladin language also known as the "Lech de l'ercaboan" (“Rainbow Lake”) thanks to its incredible colours?
