マドゥラインの湖・トップ20

Very atmospheric in the early morning!

Lago Bianco is a reservoir near the Bernina Pass and lies within the municipalities of Pontresina and Poschiavo. The lake is located directly at the pass summit at 2,234 meters above sea level. Lago Bianco is bordered by two dams on its north and south sides and is approximately three kilometers long and about 800 meters wide. At its maximum depth, Lago Bianco is over 50 meters deep. The reservoir on the Bernina Pass is fed by various mountain streams and glacial water, with the Cavagliasch stream flowing through the lake the most. The whitish, somewhat milky Lago Bianco gets its name (in German, "White Lake") from the inflow of sand and glacial water. On the western shore of Lago Bianco is the Bernina Hospice (Ospizio Bernina), and the Rhaetian Railway's train line – the Bernina Express – also runs directly along the shore. The Bernina Pass road is also located on the west side, although not directly on the lakeshore. In cold winters, the lake can freeze over, and in some years, beautiful black ice forms. Once the reservoir is opened by the authorities, nothing stands in the way of ice skating on Lago Bianco. Text / Source: Schweizersee.ch https://www.schweizersee.ch/lago_bianco_pontresina/

Lago Bianco, Bernina Pass at 2234 meters The Lago Bianco is a reservoir at the Bernina Pass and is located in the area of the municipalities of Pontresina and Poschiavo. The lake is located directly at the pass at 2234 meters above sea level. The Lago Bianco is bordered by two dams on its north and south sides and is around three kilometers long and about 800m wide. When filled to its maximum, the depth of the Lago Bianco is over 50 meters. The reservoir on the Bernina Pass is fed by various mountain streams and glacier water, while the Cavagliasch in particular leaves the lake. The whitish, somewhat milky-looking Lago Bianco gets its name (in German "White Lake") from the inflow of sand and glacier water. The Bernina Hospice (Ospizio Bernina) is located on the western shore of Lago Bianco, and the Rhaetian Railway's train line - the Bernina Express - also runs directly along the shore. The Bernina Pass road is also located on the western side, but not directly on the lake shore. In cold winters, the lake can freeze over and in some years the beautiful black ice forms.

When the trees and mountains are reflected in the lake, it is especially fun to sit on the shore for a while and watch the hustle and bustle.

エンガディン地方の最も奥にある谷とヴァルポスキアヴォの間、ベルニナ峠にある貯水池。ベルニナ峠の貯水池は、氷河ミルク（シルトを含む氷河水）によって供給されています。これにより、湖は乳白色の白っぽい色になります。ラゴ・ビアンコは分水嶺でもあり、水は東に黒海へ、南にアドリア海へと流れます。岸辺には、ユネスコ世界遺産に登録されているレーティッシュ鉄道の有名なベルニナ・エクスプレスが蛇行しています。

Nice round, if you want to have lunch at the second lake it is useful to book in advance. There are also all public BBQs with wood supply.

The lake at the top of the pass has 2 dam walls, one to the south and the other to the north.

Fantastic, quiet mountain lake 😍
