Lake Neves

Highlight • Lake

Great reservoir in the middle of beautiful nature 👍, directly accessible by car with mobile homes and larger vehicles you have to park below the toll route because the road is too narrow!!!

September 27, 2023,Chemnitzer Hütte 🇮🇹

On the way there I took the shortcuts through the forest, i.e. almost 600 meters of climbing stairs 🤣 but since you have the mountain range behind you most of the time anyway, I thought that was a good idea. As soon as you leave the forest, you have a magnificent view 😍 the Chemnizer hut is great, the view …

Fine climb between grazing cows and abandoned huts. Magnificent view of the snow-covered peaks of the main Alpine ridge.

Simply stop in between and enjoy …

A very nice tour. The snow and the sun made the reservoir shine in a super blue and shiny way. Good compensation for the cold and the wind.

We've already walked the round in the fall. That was awesome. In summer, however, it also has its appeal.
This time the Chemnitzer Hütte was also open and I can only recommend it. Very tasty food and fresh drinks and the ascent is forgotten 😅
On the way back we were hit by a short but heavy downpour. But you …
