Lago di Poschiavo / Puschlav Lake The Lago di Poschiavo, or Puschlav Lake in German, is located in the southern Graubünden municipality of Poschiavo/Puschlav. The natural reservoir is 962 meters above sea level. The lake is approximately 2.5 km long in a north/south direction and one kilometer wide. The Poschiavino river is both an inflow and outflow of the lake, which is up to 80 m deep at most. The Rhaetian Railway line runs along the western shore towards Brusio and Tirano in Italy. The village center of Poschiavo is about five kilometers north of the Puschlav Lake. On the lake itself are the villages of Miralago in the south and Le Prese in the north end. Both villages have Rhaetian Railway stops. The approximately seven-kilometer circular route around the Lago di Poschiavo can be completed in just under two hours. Since 2016, the "Sassalbo" has been a rentable boat on Lake Poschiavo. It is considered the largest passenger ship in the canton of Graubünden.

A very tough climb from any side you choose to do it.

Whichever side you pedal, the pass is always a spectacle of nature…

A challenge against oneself

Rest area with several tables, a place to light a fire and right next to the Pian di Gembro car parks. The tables are all in the sun and there is no fountain, so be prepared (although for those who are thirsty there are places on the road or in the flat area on the path a short distance away).

At an altitude between Aprica and Trivigno, it is a very beautiful plain from a naturalistic point of view. Also reachable by car and equipped with a car park, it can be a starting point for bike rides or a good panoramic stopping point equipped with tables and some places that offer refreshments in the summer. Point of passage for many tours involving the Aprica and Mortirolo passes.

Lake Poschiavo is splendid and often so clear that it reflects the surrounding mountains like a mirror. A cycle path runs around us with no difference in altitude or technical difficulties, also suitable for families. There are a couple of places to organize barbecues, and several fountains. The red Bernina train passes close by.
