Lago di Tenno
About
Lago di Tenno is a picturesque alpine lake nestled in the heart of Trentino, Italy, at an elevation of 570 m. Formed around 1100 AD by a massive landslide that blocked the Rì Sec river, the 0.25 km² lake boasts crystal‑clear waters and a tranquil atmosphere that attracts nature lovers, photographers, and families alike. The surrounding landscape—rich with pine‑covered hills and the towering Dolomites in the distance—provides ample opportunities for leisurely strolls, gentle hikes, and scenic picnics along its shoreline. As a protected biotope, the area also offers a rare glimpse into the region’s unique flora and fauna, making it an ideal destination for eco‑tourists and curious explorers.
