Lake Braies (Lago di Braies), also known as the "Pearl of the Dolomite Lakes", enchants with its green and blue hues, reflecting the majestic Seekofel mountain. Nostalgic wooden boats, which can be hired for a boat trip, complete the idyllic picture. Lake Braies is an absolute highlight, especially in fine weather, but is no longer an insider tip. That's why you should be there early in the morning to enjoy the atmosphere. It's best to use our webcam in Braies to make sure the weather is ideal for your day at the lake. Lake Braies is not only a popular excursion destination, but also served as a film set for the TV series "The Mountain Police - Close to the Sky" with Terence Hill. It is also the starting point for the Dolomites long-distance hiking trail no. 1 and numerous other hiking trails that lead through the breathtaking landscape.
No less impressive is the high plateau of Prato Piazza, which is also a must-see when visiting Braies. At around 2,000 meters above sea level, you will find countless activities of all kinds at any time of year. Whether cross-country skiing, hiking or simply enjoying the untouched nature - Prato Piazza will delight you with its unique view of the Three Peaks, Monte Cristallo and the Dolomite massif of the Tofane.
