Surrounded by charming villages and dramatic mountains, the lake’s crystal-clear waters sparkle under the golden sun. Whether you’re exploring by boat, hiking in the hills, or just soaking in the peaceful views from a café, this place feels like a dream come to life.
Pro tip: start your day off as early as possible as it gets super crowded around 2pm as all the day tours from Milan come flocking in

Midday magic at Miradouro do Guindaste 🌊✨ While sunrise gets all the love, the cliffs and ocean still shine bright in daylight! Pro tip for photographers: use a polarizer to cut glare and grab a wide-angle shot to capture the vast coastline. Even in daylight, the crashing waves and rugged cliffs make for stunning captures.

The sun setting over the wonderful humans of Afrikaburn. I loved how all of the dust around us picked up the golden light and left a layered scene of silhouettes off on the evening of adventures. This place is just magical

A quiet autumn morning at one of my favourite places in the world, Seiser Alm. Autumn in the Dolomites has been on the bucket list since I first visited and it was so much more magical than I had ever envisioned.
