Our lake tales the blog
Tales and moments, mysticism and magic
History or stories? Dream or reality? The boundaries between reality and fiction blur almost imperceptibly. The cuckoo murmurs, the pine whispers, the little brook gurgles. And they all tell stories of their experiences and fantasies. Around the Wolfsgrubner Lake.
Ice skating on Lago di Costalovara
When winter in Renon gets cold enough, Lago di Costalovara changes completely. Water turns to ice and the lake outside Hotel Weihrerhof becomes a very special place to spend time outdoors. Ice skating on Lago di Costalovara is possible when ice conditions allow, usually from early December until the end of January. Whether the lake can actually be used always depends on the current weather and the condition of the natural ice.
KlausCan you go ice skating on Lago di Costalovara?
Yes. When the ice is sufficiently strong, you can go ice skating on Lago di Costalovara in Renon. In a typical winter, suitable conditions are usually found from early December until the end of January. As this is natural ice, the beginning and end of the skating season can vary from year to year.
When everything comes together, winter fun begins right outside the Weihrerhof.
Skates on and out onto the ice.
A few careful steps at first. Then longer turns. And perhaps the realisation that somehow it all looked a little easier last winter.
When can you go ice skating on Lago di Costalovara?
Ice skating on Lago di Costalovara is usually possible from early December until the end of January, provided temperatures and ice conditions allow. There is no guaranteed skating period on natural ice. How early the lake freezes and how long the ice remains suitable always depends on the individual winter and current conditions.
Sometimes the skating season starts earlier. Sometimes winter takes a little longer to arrive. Even a few milder days can quickly change the conditions.
That is why it is always important to check the current situation before stepping onto the ice and to ask locally if you are unsure.
A cold winter does not keep opening hours.
And that is part of what makes natural ice so special. It cannot be switched on. It appears when winter decides the time is right.
Is the ice on Lago di Costalovara safe?
Natural ice is always affected by weather and temperature. Anyone entering the frozen Lago di Costalovara does so at their own responsibility. Before stepping onto the ice, always check the current conditions and never assume that a surface is safe simply because it looks solid.
An old Weihrerhof version put it rather casually: open, well, perhaps unofficially.
Today we prefer to be a little more precise.
Nature is still nature.
And ice deserves respect.
Winter by the lake, when conditions are right
Ice skating on Lago di Costalovara is not a winter activity that can be guaranteed at any time. That is part of its charm. When cold temperatures, ice and weather come together, the lake outside the Weihrerhof becomes a wonderful place for a few rounds in the fresh winter air.
You can find more ideas for cold days on our Winter at the Weihrerhof page.
And when the ice is ready?
Skates on.
Finally, onto the ice.
