Crystal-clear waters, unspoilt nature and mountains reflected on the surface: Lake Ledro is one of Trentino’s most popular destinations for anyone looking to spend a relaxing day enjoying the sunshine, swimming and outdoor activities. Thanks to the quality of its waters and its many designated swimming areas, the lake offers a variety of beaches suitable for families, couples, sports enthusiasts and those travelling with their dogs.
Here is our complete guide to the beaches of Lake Ledro, with all the useful information you need to choose your favourite during your stay at Villaggio Val Molini.
Molina di Ledro Beach (approximately 7 km from Villaggio Val Molini)
Located near the famous Pile Dwellings Museum, Molina Beach is the best-equipped beach on the lake. It is an ideal choice for families, as the lakebed slopes gently into the water rather than becoming deep immediately, providing a safer environment for children. Another great advantage? This is the beach where the sun stays out the longest during the day.
What you will find: Public toilets, several paid car parks, a children’s playground, a bar and beach volleyball and tennis courts (available for a fee).
Activities: Not far from the pile dwellings, you can rent canoes, pedal boats and SUP boards to explore the lake.
Pur Beach (approximately 7 km from Villaggio Val Molini)
Surrounded by greenery and a peaceful natural setting, Pur Beach combines tranquillity with convenient facilities. It is the perfect choice for those travelling with their four-legged friends: the beach is home to a dedicated Dog Beach, where your dog can enjoy the water and spend time freely.
What you will find: Public toilets, a children’s playground, a bar and several paid car parks.
Activities: If you are looking for a little adrenaline, this is the beach for you, as you can experience the thrill of wakeboarding here.
Pieve di Ledro Beach (approximately 4 km from Villaggio Val Molini)
Pieve Beach is the closest to us and is perfect for anyone who wants to combine swimming with lakeside walks and moments of leisure. Compared with Molina Beach, keep in mind that the sun disappears a little earlier in the afternoon here.

What you will find: The beach is small but has public toilets. Please note that there are only a few parking spaces in the immediate vicinity, so we recommend arriving early.
