A simple loop around Lake Terlago, with some interesting points in terms of nature.

The route around Lake Terlago is just over 3 km long, mainly flat, and also accessible to less experienced hikers.

The lake itself was once formed by three smaller lakes, which gave the nearby village its name (Trilacum), while now it is formed by two bodies of water which, in the warmest months of the year are almost or completely separated from one another. The northern lake is the largest of the two and has bars, restaurants, beaches as well as offerIng wakeboarding opportunities. The perfect location for a day of fun and relaxation! The southern lake is more natural in character. Fishing in an ecosystem with many different species is possible in both lakes.

On the second part of the trail, at certain times of the year, you can sometimes spot the herons who build their nests in the trees above the lake.

Safety guidelines

The telephone number for the emergency services is 112.

The information on this chart is subject to inevitable variations, so this means that none of the indications are absolute. It is not entirely possible to avoid giving inexact or imprecise information, given how quickly environmental and weather conditions can change. For this reason we decline any responsibility for changes which the user may encounter. In any case, the hiker is advised to check the conditions of the places, environment and weather before setting out.

Attention!

  • In the winter, Lake Terlago may be frozen: Walking on the frozen surface is not recommended as it is very slippery and fragile!
  • In the event of heavy rainfall, the route may be flooded and therefore partially inaccessible.
