A Hidden Gem: Discovering This Small, Stunning Lake

This little lake is truly a hidden gem among photography spots. I stumbled upon it purely by chance and have only seen it pop up on Instagram once since then. It’s one of those rare, untouched places that feels like your own secret discovery.

Getting There & Parking

Reaching the lake is super easy, and you can park here very close to it. However, be mindful of the parking restrictions...only park during the allowed times. The local residents take this seriously; we noticed a local taking photos of a vehicle parked a single minute over the limit as we were leaving!

To avoid any hassle, stick to the rules or consider parking lower in the village. If you’re traveling with a camper, this lower parking area is also an option for overnight stays. --> Park4Night (we also slept here, as there are not many options in the area).

Accommodations

The village of St. Christina in Gröden offers plenty of accommodations, including a few Hotel options right near the small lake.

Hikes

The surroundings are also perfect for cycling or taking on larger hiking adventures. It’s a destination that blends tranquility with opportunities for outdoor exploration, making it ideal for both relaxation and activity.

Best Times to Visit

The lake is absolutely magical at both sunrise and sunset, offering incredible lighting for photos and a serene atmosphere. If you visit midday or during sunset, though, expect a few more visitors as the lake’s accessibility draws people in. Since it’s just a few minutes’ walk from the parking area, it’s not surprising that others are also drawn to its charm!
