"Walking Near the Lakes of Baselga di Pinè!"
Hello, dear friends,
These days, for work-related reasons, I find myself in Trentino-Alto Adige. I have to meet quite a few clients, so I'm not heading back home but staying in accommodations that my company has booked. I find this quite interesting because it gives me the opportunity to stay in new places that I might never have visited otherwise. So, in my upcoming posts, I'll probably be talking much less about Tuscany and more about other places around Italy.
Just yesterday, I was in Baselga di Pinè, a fairly famous tourist spot in Trentino-Alto Adige. I'd heard about it from a friend of mine who often comes here to ski, as there's a ski resort in the area.
During the time I had to relax, after meeting with a client, I took a leisurely walk, which is just what I needed after a heavy workday. I went to Lake Serraia and Lake delle Piazze, which are two lakes near this town. There's a convenient trail that makes the walk quite pleasant, so I took some photos to share with you here.
The first thing that struck me was that spring is quite delayed here. In fact, it even snowed a few days ago, so it's still quite chilly, and I noticed that the nature around the lake is still in its winter state.
Of course, since it was a workday, there was practically no one around. But I can only imagine how many people might stroll around this lake on Sundays or during holidays. From the information I found online, these lakes are swimmable in the summer, and they even create beaches around here where people can swim, although I can imagine that the water is freezing even in the summer.
And in the summer, there's also a boat service that lets you navigate the lake—not large boats, as far as I understood, but ones that can hold up to 22 people.
From what I've gathered, it takes about three hours to walk around the lakes. I only did part of the trail, and along the way, I noticed some wooden sculptures, which is quite a common practice—placing these sculptures along trails. I’ve seen this in Trentino before, and I think it's a nice touch, although there's always a risk that they might get vandalized in Italy.
As I continued my walk, I also came across what I believe is a horse farm. However, I also heard that you need to be a bit careful in this area because you might run into bears. In fact, as the owner of the hotel where I was staying told me, bear attacks on humans have increased recently, so you need to be a bit cautious.
Still, there's nothing better than taking a walk in these natural settings; it's truly a tonic for the mind and body.
I hope you enjoyed the photos I took and shared with you here. It’s a pleasure to bring you new places that I'm discovering for the first time as well. See you in my next post, and I wish you all a great day!

I hope nothing happens to you on this business trip. Bear attacks are really an event that should not be underestimated.
Apart from that, I loved the photos you took and the nature. The greenery did not remind me of winter, but it is possible to say that it is cold even from the photos.
Have a good one!
👏 Keep Up the good work on Hive ♦️ 👏
