The lake of Santa Croce was formed due to a landslide that blocked the course of the Piave river towards Vittorio Veneto. This lake is the second largest lake in the Veneto region and is surrounded by the Alpago and Nevegal mountains. Used in the past for the transport of timber to the south, today the lake is a favorite destination above all for windsurfers and kitesurfers for the strength and constancy of the thermal wind that regularly strengthens in the afternoon. Cyclists and pedestrians can instead enjoy a route that covers almost the entire eastern side of the lake and allows access to some free and equipped beaches.

View of Lake Santa Croce

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lake Santa Croce, the largest in the province of Belluno and the second in Veneto, is a natural lake formed by a landslide that closed the Val Lapisina blocking the descent of the Piave river towards Vittorio Veneto and creating the Sella del Fadalto. Located in the Alpago area, between the municipality of the same name and Ponte nelle Alpi, on the border with the province of Treviso, it is a mirror of water that reflects the Alpago and Nevegal mountains on its crystalline waters. The villages along the banks still retain examples of the typical architecture of terraced houses with roofs in stone slabs, straw and marsh reeds.

Lake Santa Croce

Highlight • Lake

The lake Lago di Santa Croce is a hotspot for kite and windsurfers. Due to its special location, geothermal winds develop almost every afternoon, seemingly as if you could set the clock accordingly. Marveling at the surfers is a wonderful pastime.
