The best time to visit Lake Enol is in the summer months from July to September, when the weather is pleasant and the lake is not frozen over. The views of the lake and surrounding mountains are breathtaking! The scenery is particularly beautiful early in the morning when the mist rises from the lake. There are picnic areas and restrooms near the lake, as well as a small cafe that sells snacks and drinks.

It is next to Lake Ercina and together, they form the group known as Lakes of Covadonga, inside the Picos de Europa National Park. Lake Enol is the larger of the two. It is situated approximately 10 km from Covadonga and 25 km from Cangas de Onís. A curving road is available from Arriondas to the lake. Measuring 0.1 square kilometres (0.039 sq mi), it is one of the biggest lakes in the area. Lake Enol is situated 1,070 metres (3,510 ft) above sea level, in the Picos de Europa).
