Lake Molveno

1/5

Distance: Nine miles Enjoy a gentle circular walk along the scenic shore of Lake Moveno, admiring the crystal blue waters of this beautiful lake. The Italian poet Antonio Fogazzaro described it as a "precious pearl within an even more precious casket" – on this walk you'll see why. Journey through woods, past the Ponte Romano (an intact ancient Roman Bridge) and a waterfall. Although quite long, this walk is not strenuous and acts as a good introduction to the walking programme.
