Cei – Prà dall’Albi Lake - Description

Walk between the two lakes
The walk allows you to discover a wide variety of ecosystems: the pond, the bog, the beech forest are just a few examples.
The protected area includes two large basins. The first includes two lakes, Cei Lake and one minor, called Lagabis. Continuing at the Glen Cei that descends northwards to Cimone and Aldeno, you will meet two peaty areas.
The second basin is smaller, and is separated from the first by a line of hills. It hosts a swamp-lake of great interest, known as “Pra dell'Albio” or “Lake St. Martin”.
Through the centuries, these places were subject to continuous human presence with all sorts of people that have occurred over time, leaving important traces of their passage. An important witness is formed by the St. Martin in Trasiel church, attainable with a short detour from the ring of course.

Directions

  • Start

    Hotel Lago di Cei

     The entrance to visit the path of the habitat is located along the provincial road n.20 near Cei Lake, at the height of the Hotel Lago di Cei. The route is a loop that runs along the territory occupied by the biotope to bring the end of the visit to the main entrance. The entire route can be completed in about 4 hours, with leisurely breaks, taking account of short stops to observe, photograph, write and rest. The track does not involve any technical difficulties. It should be noted only a short but steep trail section, situated after St. Martin lake, at the height of “Pra of Albi”, which climbs up a short road leading to the Romanesque church of St. Martin. Along the way they are given 22 points of special interest identified by the Forest Service and Fauna of the PAT.
