In the Valle d'Ansei, part of the Auronzo di Cadore municipality, stretches Lake Auronzo for two kilometers. This shimmering body of water is celebrated for its clarity and popularity in the Veneto region. Situated in the Province of Belluno, Lake Auronzo is an artificial lake formed by a dam constructed in the 1930s, diverting the flow of the Ansei River. Standing 55 meters high, the dam was completed in 1932, creating a reservoir with a capacity of 6.25 million cubic meters of water. Near the dam lies a charming 16th-century chapel dedicated to St. Cristina, hence the lake is also known as Lake of Santa Cristina.
