Lake Fedaia, High-altitude reservoir in the Dolomites, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy.
Lake Fedaia sits at 2,053 meters elevation in the Dolomites, stretching 1,400 meters in length with crystal waters reflecting the surrounding peaks including the Marmolada glacier.
The reservoir was created in the 1950s through dam construction, combining natural glacial formation with human engineering for hydroelectric power generation in the alpine region.
Located in the traditional Ladin community area of Val di Fassa, where local customs, language, and mountain traditions have been preserved for centuries among residents.
Accessible by car from Canazei via a ten-kilometer mountain road, with cable car service from Malga Ciapela providing alternative transportation during summer months.
The site features preserved World War I trenches and fortifications along the Ferrata delle Trincee trail, combining natural beauty with wartime historical remnants.
