Around lake Serraia and lake Piazze - Description

This walk around the lakes of the Piné Plateau is a relaxing one with a very moderate difference in height. As a shorter alternative, you can choose to wlak around just one of the two lakes. Suitable for everyone and also ideal for families with children. For those who want to walk more, the cycle and pedestrian paths goes on until Lake Buse, particurly liking for trip and pic-nics
The route strolls around the two renowned lakes of the plateau, crossing the natural reserve "Paludi di Sternigo", and passing by a riding stable, refreshment points and free beaches equipped with playgrounds, to reach the final shore of Lake Piazze. From here the way back can on the opposite shores of the two lakes in relation to the outward route. The itinerary is almost entirely flat, at times asphalted and in others on dirt road. The length is about 9 km, which can be covered in about 2 hours of walking. The classic starting point is in loc. Serraia or loc. Lido, on the lake of Serraia, but the tour can be done starting from any of the car parks / rest stops around the lakes.

Directions

  • Start

    Baselga di Pinè - Serraia

    We suggest you to start from the southern tip of Lake Serraia just outside Baselga: follow the walking and cycling path along the western shore of the lake, go on through the 'Paludi di Sternigo' nature reserve and along the eastern shore of Lake Piazze up to a place called 'Fabbrica' (Hotel Pineta). From there, head back to Baselga by following the footpath along the northern shore of Lake Piazze. When you reach 'Albergo Due Laghi', take a small road on the left which takes you back to the walking and cycling path you followed on your way there. When you reach a riding stable ('Dallapiccola') located just before locality 'Paludi', keep left again and follow the walking and cycling path along the eastern shore of Lake Serraia to get back to the starting point.
