Description Details Turn-by-turn directions How to get there Equipment

Wrapped in ice and snow, Lake Karer is almost magical. The circular route offers a stunning view of the snow-covered Dolomites and leads through the quiet Latemar forest.

In its winter attire, Lake Karer has its very own charm. The water surface, which appears so crystal-clear and inviting in summer, transforms in the cold months into a magical world of ice and snow, surrounded by the white Dolomite mountains Rosengarten and Latemar. The long circular route leads from the small holiday resort Lake Karer to the suspension bridge, then past Lake Karer and further into the snow-covered Latemar forest, where you can enjoy the clear mountain air and peace.
