Lake Levico

The little brother of Lake Caldonazzo resembles a Norwegian fjord

With a length of 2,840 m, a width of 950 m and a maximal depth of 38 m, Lake Levico is a natural gem at an altitude of 440 m a.s.l. Its shape very much resembles a Norwegian fjord. It is separated from Lake Caldonazzo only by the colle di Tenna, from where you can enjoy an amazing panoramic view. As its name reveals, the lake is near the thermal village of Levico Terme and its water reflects the dense forests it is surrounded by, giving it its typical emerald green colour. In autumn, as the leaves turn brown and yellow, the colour of this suggestive body of water in the mountains changes too.

The easy "strada dei pescatori" (fishermen's path) runs along its shores and is an ideal choice for enjoyable strolls, even on hot summer days. The biotope "Canneto di Levico" in the southernmost part of the lake and a protected winter habitat for water birds such as the great crested grebe, the coot, the common moorhen and the mallard.

Lake Levico is a paradise for water sport lovers: here you can practice swimming, sailing, windsurfing and many other different activities. Several beaches and two beach resorts, where you can have fun and relax at the same time, can be found here. On the opposite shore instead, adventure seekers will be amazed by a true highlight: a liane which allows you to swing across the lake and jump into its refreshing water!

Also in 2024, Lake Levico has been awarded the prestigious Bandiera Blu eco-label, which is given for excellent water quality, environmental protection and sustainable services.
