メセの湖・トップ12

Beautiful alpine lake located in the large plateau at the foot of Pizzo Stella.

The Valchiavenna cycle path is a fascinating 40 km route that goes from Colico to the Swiss border (Val Bregaglia), passing through suggestive places such as Chiavenna, Piuro with its archaeological excavations, the Acquafraggia waterfalls and the Palazzo Vertemate Franchi. The route reflects the fusion of two cultures, offering a Central European atmosphere. In 2022, the Valchiavenna Cycle Path won 3rd prize at the Italian Green Road Awards.

Beautiful cycle path, almost entirely flat apart from a few short climbs between Chiavenna and the CH border (for those traveling north). Good places to eat near the lakes and from Chiavenna to Switzerland. Worth noting is the lack of shade (especially in summer) in the central part of the route.

The lake appears at the first break on the Italian side. On a sunny day, it is worth stopping on the shore to take a photo with the mountains in the background. On hot summer days, the bravest dare to bathe in its cold waters.

Beautiful lake in a stunning setting

Nice lake in a flat section of the Spluga Pass climb. Equipped for stops, it may be worth taking a break.
