Kreuzbichl Trail in the Kaiser Mountains

Highlight • Trail

The hiking trail leads through a stunning landscape in the Kaiser Mountains. Sturdy shoes are a must, as it goes over rocky and rooty sections.

The Hintersteiner See is picturesquely situated at the foot of the Wilder Kaiser. From here, numerous tours of varying difficulty levels can be undertaken. Ample parking is available (for a fee) at the Café/Restaurant Seestüberl.

Hintersteiner Lake

Highlight • Lake

An enchanting mountain lake, 56 ha in size and up to 36 m deep, lies at 883 m above sea level high above Scheffau in the midst of the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve. A hike around Lake Hintersteiner offers a deep view. A bike ride here is always worthwhile. Wonderful mountain lake with wonderful photo opportunities. The food here in the restaurant is also of the highest quality.

Hintersteiner See

Highlight • Lake

The Hintersteiner See is a fantastically beautiful bathing lake in the middle of the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve with crystal-clear water and a lido. The lake is 56 hectares in size and up to 36 meters deep.

A beautiful path leads around the lake, which is asphalted from the car park to the Goingstätthof snack station to the west and is therefore also suitable for pushchairs. The south bank, on the other hand, rises slightly and offers fantastic views of the Wilder Kaiser reflected in the water. A popular photo motif!

A large parking lot is available for a fee. The circular route is also a wonderful hike in winter!

View of Hintersteiner See

Highlight • Viewpoint

A nice circular hike around the lake with good refreshment stops also leads you to this vantage point. Sometimes only the cars that you come across on Seestrasse are annoying.
