Switzerland Laghetto dei Saléi
Beautiful mountain lake in a remote part of Southern Switzerland. Stunning autumn colours from the larches. In late October the sun rises just behind some of those nice trees.
Photography Tips
Early morning or mid afternoon if you want the larches lit up. Dress properly. The lake is on nearly 2000m and it can get very cold in autumn.
Travel Information
Drive up from Locarno direction Onsernone/Vergeletto until you reach the cable car. It will take you up to Alpe Saléi from where you can reach the lake in 45 minutes. There is a very basic hut on the alp where you can stay over (closes some time in October depending on the weather).
