Diga di S. Giustina

Dam Cles, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy

What to expect

Lake Santa Giustina is a lake in Trentino, Italy, and is a monument to the power of water. The lake was formed by the construction of the Santa Giustina dam, which was the highest dam in Europe at 152.50 meters when it was built between 1946 and 1952. The lake is surrounded by picturesque canyons that are popular with canoeists and kayakers. Visitors can explore the canyons, go on a kayak trip, or stroll in the historic Cles orchard. The lake is also a great destination for lovers of relaxation, with a green area set up with facilities to enjoy the natural beauty of the place. In the spring, the submerged bridges of the Val di Non reappear when the water level is low, creating a unique sight. The Dos de Pez hill in Cles offers a fairytale vista of the lake, the mountains, and Cles castle
