The Wood House at Lago di Braies, also known as Pragser Wildsee, is a charming wooden building located on the shores of the picturesque lake in the Dolomites. It was originally built in the early 20th century as a lodge for tourists and has since become a popular spot for visitors. The house offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and lake, making it a favorite for photographers and nature lovers. Its rustic, alpine architecture blends perfectly with the serene and breathtaking landscape.

Photography Tips

For photographing Lago di Braies, try capturing the reflections of the mountains and trees in the clear water for a symmetrical and peaceful shot. Early morning or late afternoon light provides soft, warm tones that enhance the landscape. Use a wide-angle lens to capture the grandeur of the scenery, and experiment with long exposure shots to smooth out the water's surface. If you’re photographing the Wood House, try shooting it from different angles, incorporating the surrounding nature for context. Don’t forget to bring a tripod for stability and sharpness, especially in low light.

Lago di Braies is located in the Dolomites in northern Italy. The easiest way to reach it is by car, with parking available near the lake.

I was there a in 2018 and I will be there in mid August 2022. Will the milky way still visible with the boat house in the foreground?

Yes, it's possible, but the Moon will be up in the sky in mid August night. So the planned date is wrong.

Hi Al, Thanks! In this time my apartment was in Villabassa. That is 12 km to Braies. At night I sat into the car and drive to the lake. Aproximately 20 minutes.
