👍👍 This place was amazing, great little spot right off the main road. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the wine, cheese and meats were all delicious! Can still see the lake from the terrace but don’t have all the cars flying by you while your enjoying your wine.

The entire hike from the beginning is quite steep, hiking poles would be tremendously...

👍👍 Worth visiting to see a beautiful scenery, as you may have seen that its right at the intersection of the 2 branches of the lake!
It's better to get here by foot, the roads ~500mt are too narrow and also have tourists walking around. Parking is a bit tough to find on the streets due to the crowd bu...
