The intense blue-green color of the lakes is caused by the light reflection on the high concentration of limestone particles dissolved in the water.
The park is situated at the narrowest point of the Fadalto pass, which separates the Lake of Santa Croce from the Vittorio Veneto plains.
The site functions as an important rest area for migratory birds traveling through the Alpine corridor.
Water levels in the lakes fluctuate seasonally based on the meltwater flow from the surrounding Cansiglio massif.
Parco Laghi Blu is a scenic nature area located in the Fadalto valley, defined by its distinctive turquoise-colored karst lakes fed by mountain springs. The park serves as a hub for the Valla Pisinai initiatives, providing a localized ecosystem that highlights the unique hydrological features of the Venetian Prealps. Visitors can access a network of trails that circulate through forested zones and waterfront paths surrounding the basins. The site is a popular destination for hikers and those interested in the geomorphology of the Vittorio Veneto region. Recent maintenance efforts by local associations ensure that the water clarity and surrounding paths remain accessible for pedestrian use.

Carry out all waste, as there are limited bin facilities within the protected park boundaries.
Attempting to swim in the lakes is discouraged and often prohibited due to deep, cold water and unstable, steep limestone banks.
The park is best accessed during the warmer months, as trails may become icy or restricted during mid-winter snowfall.
Respect quiet zones to avoid disturbing local wildlife; keep dogs on a leash at all times.
