Wind specificities

Classic thermal system of the great Alpine lakes: north wind (Tramontana) in the morning, then rotation to the south (Inverna) in the afternoon. The best sessions are between 1pm and 5pm with the Inverna. In unsettled weather, the Foehn (north) can blow very strongly.

Hazards

The lake can be rough in sustained wind with short, steep waves. Watch out for boat and ferry traffic. The wind can drop suddenly at the end of the day.
