Hiking tour Falkomaisee

The high mountain lake is beautifully nestled above the Falkomaialm and offers an unrivalled view of Ulten and the surrounding mountains.

Deep blue lakes like Lake Falkomai are not uncommon in Meran and environs and provide the perfect backdrop for a unique souvenir photo from a hiking holiday in South Tyrol.
