Holiday apartment in Misurina: mountain lake, mountains and culture

Misurina lies at an altitude of 1,756 metres in surroundings characterised by mountains and green forests. The small natural Lago di Misurina defines the village; the surrounding peaks are reflected on its surface. For you, this means that a holiday apartment in Misurina takes you right into a high-mountain landscape whose character is shaped directly by the lake and the mountains.

Holiday apartment in Misurina: experiences between the lake and the mountains

A path runs along the shore of Lago di Misurina and allows you to walk around the lake. This route offers a peaceful way to experience the village up close and repeatedly turn your gaze towards the water and the mountain scenery. The Cadini, Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Monte Cristallo and Massiccio del Sorapis are reflected in Lago di Misurina.

The mountain landscape also includes the Col de Varda two-seater chairlift. It connects Misurina at 1,756 metres with Rifugio Col de Varda at 2,106 metres and takes approximately ten minutes. From Rifugio Col de Varda, there are views of Lago di Misurina and the surrounding mountains, including Cristallo, the Sexten Dolomites, the Cadini, Sorapiss and the Tofane.

Rifugio Col de Varda is also a starting point for numerous hikes into the Cadini di Misurina, including to Rifugio Fonda Savio and Rifugio Città di Carpi.

Winter activities and special excursions

Misurina also reveals different sides in winter. Campo scuola Loita has two cross-country ski trails. The Misurina ski area includes an easy slope suitable for beginners taking their first steps in skiing. A shuttle service to Tre Cime di Lavaredo runs from Misurina Genzianella directly to Rifugio Auronzo.

On Lago di Misurina, taking a rowing boat is considered a summer experience. The various options help you determine the desired balance between activity, scenery and relaxing hours when looking for accommodation in Misurina.

History and culture by the mountain lake

Monte Piana is a memorial site commemorating the First World War and houses a historical open-air museum about the First World War. The Chiesa della Madonna della Salute provides a different historical emphasis: it was consecrated by Don Antonio Da Rin in August 1900. Queen Margherita of Savoy attended a mass there in honour of her husband, who was killed in July 1900.

If you would like to include cultural impressions in your travel planning alongside experiences in nature, you can combine the lake, mountain trails, winter sports and history in Misurina. Your choice of holiday apartment may therefore depend on whether you primarily want to explore the landscape around Lago di Misurina, prepare for hikes in the Cadini or get to know the historic sites of the mountain region.
