Medium circular route at Lake Karer, the colorful Rainbow Lake, with suspension bridge, forest path, and view of the Dolomites – a protected natural monument to marvel at and enjoy.

Lake Karer in the Eggental is famous for its extraordinary colors and is therefore also called “Lec de Ergobando” – Rainbow Lake. With a length of about 300 meters and a width of approximately 140 meters, it is one of South Tyrol's best-known natural jewels. It is fed by underground springs from the Latemar range, which is why its size and depth can vary greatly depending on the season and weather.

The medium circular route starts at Lake Karer, crosses the suspension bridge towards the holiday settlement, and then leads back through idyllic forest areas to the starting point at the lake. Besides Lake Karer itself, the suspension bridge, built in 2018 as a connection to the Karerseesiedlung, is another special highlight for visitors.

As a protected natural monument, Lake Karer deserves special respect. It is important to observe the designated protection boundaries so that the beauty of this unique mountain lake can be preserved for the future.
