June 17, 2022,20220617 Wanderung: Pragserwildsee

After I was at this lake with my brother last year, I visited it again with Ines to walk around it. We didn't do that last year, we were here by bike and there were too many people.

In the past few years it has often been advertised by influencers and so the flow of visitors has swelled.

Simple circular hike, following the marked path around the lake, almost entirely flat (50 m difference in altitude).

An optimally conducted social experiment on the behavior of large crowds in a small space. Every now and then the feeling creeps in that you are suddenly no longer part of the group and are sitting on a bench completely alone; but due to the well-thought-out setup, you are subtly reintegrated into the group by asking you to take photos …

Today I start with Höllmüller for 5 hiking days to South Tyrol. It's a long journey, but with the weather conditions and the beautiful circumnavigation of the Pragser Wildsee, there are plenty of impressions to save.
The circumnavigation took 1.30 hours. In the evening we look at our new surroundings in Corvada.

August 2, 2024,🇮🇹 Pragser Wildsee - mustsee in de Dolomieten

It's beautiful! But also very busy, so go early or late in the afternoon. We went after 4 pm (otherwise you are not allowed on the road) and walked the Seerunde - very beautiful, never alone, but. Fairly quiet.

The Pragser Wildsee is without a doubt a highlight of the Dolomites. It's no longer a secret. The rush is accordingly. We were there very early ourselves, but it will be difficult to catch a "quiet" phase during the tour. You're definitely never alone, and we were there in October, so not necessarily the high season.
