In the Dolomites, there are various opportunities to take a spring break: for some, an opportunity to set off on new adventures, for others, simply a restful day perfect for a trip out of town.
For those who have not yet decided where to go and what to do, the Dolomites have a lot to offer in spring, such as visits to castles, walks in the midst of blossoming nature, cycling tours along cycle paths, picnics by the lake and much more.
Lake trips
With the onset of fine weather and rising temperatures, people are more inclined to escape the house and get outdoors. Beautiful sunny days and green meadows invite for relaxing trips to the lake. Here, then, are four perfect destinations for your spring picnic: Braies lake, renowned for its crystal clear waters; Carezza lake, known for its colorful shades; Molveno lake, the jewel of the Adamello Brenta Nature Park; Costalovara lake on the Renon Plateau and Corlo Lake in Arsiè, a quiet corner near Feltre, ideal for walks and relaxing moments surrounded by nature.
Cycle paths
If picnics at the lake and apple orchards in bloom don't appeal to you, and instead you prefer to practice some healthy sports immersed in the silence of nature, dust off your bike and leave for San Candido, starting point of the famous San Candido Lienz Drain Path. If you are, however, in Val di Fiemme or in Val di Fassa, take advantage of a bike ride along the Dolomites cycle path of Fiemme and Fassa. Also worth trying is the cycle path from Calalzo di Cadore to Cimabanche - Dobbiaco, known as the Dolomites Cycle Path or the Long Dolomites Route, which runs between the provinces of Belluno and Bolzano.
Castles and museums
If you don't enjoy sports, but are a culture lover instead, go to Buonconsiglio Castle or stop at Brunico to visit MMM Ripa inside the Brunico Castle. If you are near Bolzano, the Mareccio and Roncolo castles are worth a visit.
