Embedded in the picturesque mountain landscape is the crystal-clear Lake Altauseer, on the banks of which the town of the same name is located. Because the water has a slightly dark blue color, the lake is also called the "dark blue inkwell" - it is not only for this reason that it is considered one of the most beautiful lakes in the Salzkammergut. In the lake you can refresh yourself and in the local gastronomy there is also a refreshment waiting for you.

The view of the Dachstein glacier in the second part of the path is not only a particularly popular photo motif, but will also remain in your memory forever. Lake Altausseer is three kilometers long, up to one kilometer wide and surrounded to the north and east by …

Easy, leisurely tour around the lake. Surprisingly not that crowded and towards Gaisknechtstein we had absolute peace. We avoided the hiking trails towards Gaisknechtstein as much as possible because of high grass and the risk of ticks and took the forest path where possible. The 5 tick bites within the last 10 days have left their mark on me 😉.
