Le lac vert profond Molveno, au milieu des sommets des Dolomites de Brenta dans la région italienne du Trentin-Haut-Adige, a été décrit en 1890 par le poète et romancier Antonio Fogazzaro comme « la perle précieuse d’un marché encore plus précieux » et a récemment remporté le titre de plus beau lac d’Italie. six ans de fonctionnement. Le Lago di Molveno est jusqu'à 124 m (406 pi) de profondeur, avec une forêt pétrifiée sur le lit du lac que les scientifiques ont prouvé a été submergé pour la première fois il y a environ 3,000 ans.

Lake Molveno, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy: far below soaring cliffs of the Brenta Dolomites, a strong breeze ruffles leaves of surrounding trees and the surface of the deep green water in a bay of the Lago di Molveno, described in 1890 by Italian poet and novelist Antonio Fogazzaro as “the precious pearl in an even more precious casket”. The alpine lake, about 4.4 km (2.7 miles) long and 1.5 km (.9 m) wide, lies in a natural basin within the Adamello Brenta Nature Park between rugged peaks of the Brenta Group to the west such as Campanile Basso and Cima Tosa, and the summits of the Paganella and Monte Gazza massif to the south east. Both mountain chains are reflected in its surface on days without the Ora del Garda, the prevalent wind from March to October. Molveno is up to 124 m (406 ft) deep, with an average depth of 47 m (154 ft). In 1952, when it was drained for power plant construction work, a petrified forest was discovered on the lake bed. Radiocarbon dating by Pisa University established that the trees were first submerged about 3, 000 years ago, in the early Iron Age. In 2019, for the sixth year running, the Lago di Molveno was chosen by the Touring Club Italiano and the environmental association Legambiente as the most beautiful lake in Italy. The award was based not only on its natural beauty and surroundings, but on the cleanliness of its water, its beaches and the quality of leisure facilities around its shores, including those in the main lakeside settlement, the small town of Molveno.
