Overview

Lago di Caldaro (Kalterer See) is a lake located in the province of Bolzano (South Tyrol), at 213m altitude. It is the warmest lake in the Alps, surrounded by vineyards and orchards, in a typical Tyrolean landscape. The lake benefits from a regular afternoon thermal wind, channeled by the Adige valley. The wine-growing setting is unique, between apple orchards and Gewurztraminer vineyards.
