Lago di Braies, (aka Pragser Wildsee in German and Lake Braies in English) is part of the Fanes-Sennes-Braies nature park, in a side valley next to the Val Pusteria. At an altitude of 1,496 m (4,908 ft), the 77-acre lake makes for a wonderful half-day trip while traveling through the Prags Dolomites. On the West side of the lake, there is a small chapel that was built in 1904. The location has a curious bit of history related to World War II, as has the hotel. It’s truly a beautiful lake, but has gained a lot of fame through Instagram and during the summer it can be filled with tourists. Choose wisely when to go (it is beautiful also in winter when frozen) and reserve online the parking of you are going by car or motorbike. #unforgettableexperiences #awesomepic #instagramworthydestinations #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #urbanexplorer #summervacationtravel #springholiday #wintergetaway #tripaway
