Lago di Carezza

            Lago di Carezza is world famous for its deep green water in which the mountains of the impressive Latemar massif reflects.

And there is also a story behind it:
A beautiful water maid once lived in Lake Karer. She often sat on the bank, braided her blonde braids and sang softly to herself. The warlock of Masaré heard her sing and fell in love with the mermaid. He risked all of his power to kidnap her, but the water maiden was never caught. So the warlock asked his girlfriend, the witch Langwerda, for help. Langwerda advised him to disguise himself as a jeweler, to rainbow from the rose garden to the Latemar and then to Lake Karer to attract and kidnap the virgin. The warlock followed the advice, but forgot to dress up. The water fairy marveled at the sheen of the rainbow and the many gems. However, she also noticed the magician who was hiding on the shore and quickly went back into the Karer See. Since the day she never showed up again. The warlock was so angry about the failure of the planned kidnapping that in his heartache he tore the rainbow from the sky, smashed it and threw all the rainbow pieces with the jewels into the lake: That is the reason why Lake Karer is still in the most splendid today Rainbow colors shimmer and the Ladin people call it "Lec de ergobando", the rainbow lake.
