Laghi Alpini Excursions (e.g., Lago Palù)

Numerous stunning alpine lakes are accessible from Chiesa in Valmalenco. Lago Palù is one of the most famous, reachable by a pleasant hike from Alpe Palù or directly by foot from San Giuseppe. The lake offers crystal-clear waters, reflecting the surrounding peaks and forests, and is a perfect spot for picnics, photography, and gentle walks around its shores. Other notable lakes include Lago Mufulé and the remote glacial lakes higher up. Best enjoyed from late spring to early autumn when trails are clear of snow.
