Lago di Molveno

Lake Molveno lies beneath the Brenta Dolomites.

Why it matters

The 2026 edition of Il Mare più bello, produced by Legambiente with Touring Club Italiano, placed Molveno first among localities judged beautiful and sustainable and awarded it five sails. The destination's portal presents the recognition as acknowledging investment in the environment and in quality services. The broad lake basin lies at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites.

What to notice

The broad basin sits against the Brenta Dolomites, with Lake Nembia on its southern shore. The Brenta group forms one of the components of the Dolomites World Heritage property, inscribed in 2009.

Context and history
