Val d'Ayas

Lago Blu, a turquoise jewel in the ice

At the foot of the Rocca di Verra, embraced by the glacier moraine, the Lago Blu, “Blue Lake”, is a must-see destination for those visiting Val d'Ayas.

Lago Blu, a turquoise jewel in the ice

Set between the rugged brown rocks of the Rocca di Verra and the sinuous moraine ridge that the Great Glacier of Verra has created over the millennia, the Blue Lake is a triangle of turquoise water in which the outlines of the mountains are reflected. One cannot leave Val d'Ayas without first visiting this place, one of the most striking corners of nature in the entire Aosta Valley. Set at an altitude of 2,200 meters, it lies in a natural basin sheltered from winds and ice, immersed in an atmosphere in which the great stillness of the waters plays with the magnetic energies of the peaks. An unmissable place that will make for unique and unforgettable memory.
