However, the allure of the place is somewhat tarnished by its popularity. In the morning, arguments between groups of photographers fighting for a spot are common, and people breaking into the boathouse to pose on the jetty before it opens are hilarious and sometimes annoying. See it; don&#8217;t expect to be there alone, that&#8217;s all I am saying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it possible to swim in Lake Braies? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Swimming in the lake is strictly prohibited. It&#8217;s a part of a nature reserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are drones allowed at Lago di Braies?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Drones are not permitted in the nature parks in the Italian Dolomites, and Lago di Braies is no exception. Sadly, even fines don&#8217;t fend off tourists with drones. You can often see them being flown above the lake by people who feel above the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you rent the rowboats at Lago di Braies?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Boat rentals operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Rowboats can be rented for 30 or 60 minutes, and prices have skyrocketed in recent years, reaching a whopping 50 Euro\/30 minutes for a private boat.
