Alpenglow at Lake Antorno and the Drei Zinnen

The road from Misurina to the Auronzo Hut at the Drei Zinnen passes directly by the idyllically situated Lake Antorno. On calm days, the famous Drei Zinnen and the rock towers of the Cadini Group are reflected in its dark water. The sunsets in autumn are particularly beautiful when the rock faces in the southwest are illuminated. However, a break at the local inn, a photo session or a short walk around the lake is recommended at any time.

Lake Antorno was, just like Lake Braies, the Prato Piazza and other idyllic landscapes of the Braies and Belluno Dolomites, a filming location for the TV series ‘Un passo dal cielo’ (‘The Mountain Detective’), which is also well-known in Germany. With the famous actor Terence Hill in a leading role, the popularity of the series from 2011 onwards contributed to the growing fame of the natural beauty in this part of the Dolomites. As a result, the internet community also increasingly discovered these places as backdrops for themselves and spread them via social media like Instagram. On the one hand, this led to more visitors, but on the other hand, it also led to the phenomenon of many visitors waiting for a photo at certain, always identical locations because one or more couples are currently preparing or carrying out a shoot.
