  Very nice walk around the lake. It is not too difficult, and it is a very good way to discover the volcanoes landscape.  more »

  If ever here, visit and walk here, stunning! Beautiful and perfectly round volcanic lake, with lots of walks for all ages and levels of fitness. It even has a bar and restaurant.  more »

  Great place to walk and admire the landscape! The walk is easy, and it takes about 1h walk to walk around it. For your information it was a volcano before and the lake is very deep ±100m! You can't swim in it

  Nice walk around the Lake, really very beautiful to see especially when it is frozen like that. Beware with snow and ice this slides not bad at 2-3 places but otherwise too beautiful! I recommend this little hike around Lake 👍 5/5

  Pretty volcanic crater lake with a nice easy walk around. Can't swim in the lake though, it's protected.

  Very nice Lake allowing a little walk of one hour to go around. Beware however, although wide and flat at the beginning the path is a bit difficult in places (not recommended with a stroller for example). Tower made in the middle of winter. To be repeated in the other seasons to enjoy the sunshine and the different colors of the trees.
