Lake Predil

Lago del Predil

An Italian alpine lake just over Predil Pass, its emerald water reflecting the Five Peaks and Mount Kanin.

Lake Predil lies in Tarvisio, Italy, at an altitude of about 960 metres. It is about 20 km from Bovec, reached by passing Kluže Fortress and crossing Predil Pass. The water is clear and emerald green, surrounded by limestone peaks including the Five Peaks and Mount Kanin. The north shore has a small beach and WWI fortress remains. You can walk around the lake or go rowing in summer, though the water is cold. Entry is free. There are generally no border checks within the Schengen Area, but carry your documents when driving. It can be combined with the Mangart road for a half-day trip.
