Fusine Lakes, known in Italian as Laghi di Fusine and in Slovenian as Belopeška jezera, are two of the most beautiful alpine lakes near the Slovenian border and one of the most scenic natural attractions in the Julian Alps. Located near Tarvisio in Friuli Venezia Giulia, the lakes are of glacial origin and consist of the Lower Fusine Lake and the Upper Fusine Lake, set in a peaceful basin beneath the mighty Mangart mountain range. Their clear green-blue water, forested shores and dramatic mountain reflections make them a perfect destination for photography, easy walks, nature observation and scenic cross-border trips between Slovenia and Italy. Because of their location close to Rateče, Kranjska Gora, Predil Pass and Mangart, Fusine Lakes are an ideal stop for travellers exploring the alpine landscapes of northwestern Slovenia and northeastern Italy.
