Snapshot from the Dolomites at Lake Braies

Dear Wandering Spirit,

There are unique and tremendous spots all around South Tyrol in Italy. Enclosed by the beautiful Prags Dolomites, this stunning lake called Lake Braies is a true emerald of the Alps.

Known as the Pearl of the Dolomites, Lake Braies’s popularity has increased thanks to a recent Italian TV series called “One Step from Heaven”. Photographers know this place very well and recognize its unique beauty.

The lake is surrounded by fascinating high peaks, and its water is teal. You can reach this place from the Niederdorf village in the Puster valley. Cross the hotel Pragser Wildsee and  be entranced this spot. In the warm season, you can hike around the lake or rent a boat to take even more stunning pictures.
