This pearl in the valley is easily accessible and full of charm.

Not all mountain lakes are hidden away at high altitudes – this idyllic body of water has plenty to offer and it's just south of the village of Lenk. At 1064 m (3500 ft.) above sea level, this is a nature reserve and extensive children's playground with a circular trail and barbecue area. There's even a campsite if you feel like extending your visit.
