Graun im Vinschgau — Lake Resia from the Adrenalina kite school

Graun im Vinschgau - Lac de Resia depuis l'école de kite Adrenalina

🇮🇹 Trentino-South Tyrol · Italy — Altitude 1500 m

Local time UTC+1Checked 0 viewsHDNature

This camera looks out over Lake Resia, the reservoir that drowned the old village church and gave the valley its distinctive landmark. The view is taken from the Adrenalina kite school, so it follows the lake and the surrounding Alpine slopes. It is useful for anyone planning a trip to the upper Vinschgau or simply curious how the water looks today.

About Lake Resia and the valley

Graun im Vinschgau sits in the upper Vinschgau, the long Etsch valley running toward the Swiss and Austrian borders in South Tyrol. Lake Resia, known in German as Reschensee, was created by a dam in the 1950s, and its bell tower rising from the water is the best-known image of the area. The surroundings are high mountain terrain at about 1,500 metres, with open meadows, larch forests and steep rocky slopes.

What to watch on the camera

The camera is classed as a nature view, so the main subjects are the lake surface, the wind and the mountain light. Calm mornings often give mirror-like water, while afternoon breezes bring wind that suits kiting and sailing. Sunrise and late evening are the most atmospheric times, when the peaks change colour. Conditions depend on the weather, so check the live picture before you plan a visit.

Climate and getting there

Summers are mild and sunny at this altitude, and autumn brings clear, cool days with fewer visitors. Winters are cold, with snow on the surrounding peaks. Nearby Nauders in Austria has several other cameras, including mountain station views, which are worth checking for the wider picture. Plan for a drive along the Vinschgau road, which is scenic but can be slow in busy months.
