イーランツの湖・トップ20

Very beautiful lake, unfortunately there are a lot of mosquitoes.

Although it has been quite warm for November for days, the sun doesn't seem to shine all day. The fog and frost on the plants look very mystical.

Small but nice - a visit and a short walk around are worthwhile☺️

The special thing about Lag Prau Tuleritg is that it dries out at the end of summer and only fills up again the following spring when the snow melts. So there is not always water here, but when there is, it makes the lake a true idyll.

Lake without water Sept. 2022

Lag Prau Tuleritg The Lag Prau Tuleritg is an annually recurring temporary lake of a complex hydrological system in the landslide debris near Flims The lake dries up completely at the end of summer. Every early summer when the snow begins to melt in the mountains, more water flows in the underground system and the resulting overflowing Lag Prau Pulté supplies the lake near Tuleritg with water via a stream. The Prau Tuleritg Lake lies in a terrain chamber west of Lake Cauma. Obviously, the lake feeds the inflowless Lake Cauma, which is about 18 meters below, via an underground path. Lake Cauma changes its level by up to 6 meters. Text/Source: Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lag_Prau_Tuleritg

Lake Cauma, the Pearl of Flims Called "Lag la Cauma" in Romansh, which means "Lake of Midday Rest," Lake Cauma is the pearl of Flims. Origin This mountain lake was formed as a result of the largest landslide in the Alps, which occurred almost 10,000 years ago. The formation of the lakes is attributed to prehistoric landslides. The water seeped through the porous rockslide masses. However, it can also dissolve the limestone with the help of its carbonic acid. Over time, it created an underground passage. A deeper, impermeable clay layer ensures that the water does not completely seep into the ground. Text / Source: Flims Laax Falera https://www.caumasee.ch/geschichte/

The lake has no surface inflow. It drains in the fall and remains empty in the winter. At some point during the snowmelt in the spring, it begins to fill through an underground inflow. When it's full, it feeds the Lag Prau Tuleritg through an above-ground outflow, which then has only an underground outflow. This is a peculiarity, and in the spring, it's impossible to predict exactly when it will fill.
