Day 6: LAKE BRAIES - HORSE BACK RIDING

Buffet breakfast and departure to the fairy Lake Braies, a small alpine lake just inside the Dolomites UNESCO. The lake, which is also often called the 'pearl of Dolomites' lakes', owes its origin to the barrier to landslide. Even this lake hides a legend. Braies valley was inhabited by some ugly-looking savages that looked after the gold present in the nearby mountains. For these people, gold was precious for its splendor, but it also made them hard in their heart. When some animal breeders appeared in the valley, together with their livestock, the wild figures gave them some objects produced with this gold. The breeders, seeing such abundance of wealth, became greedy and started to seize the precious raw material, stealing it from the savage population. The ‘savage’ people thus decided to prevent the breeders from reaching the mountains, and had some springs gushing forth from the rock, which actually went to form the Lago di Braies downstream: this prevented the breeders from stealing further gold from the local 'savages'. Lunch on your own at a local restaurant of the area. Continue to a Horse Farm, where you will have the opportunity to join a Horse Back Riding and to appreciate the natural landscape of the Dolomites. Return to the hotel.
