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.
