Durlaßboden Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

I wouldn't go around the lake again. Rather there / back.
The "hiking trail" on the east side of the lake is a public road. I found it annoying with all the cars.

Lakeside Meadow at Durlaßboden Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

A beautiful reservoir that is used to generate electricity, but is still extremely pretty to look at. The hiking trail around the lake can be walked at any time of the year. Pedal boating and sailing is also possible here.

August 23, 2022,202. 🇦🇹 Königsleiten - Durlaßboden Stausee - Zauberwald - Bärschlagalm – Wildgerlossee - Königsleiten

Day 3 of our Zillertal vacation takes us around the Durlassboden reservoir and the Wildgerlossee.
We start at the "Almdorf Durlassboden" bus stop and first walk over the dam wall. After crossing the border from Tyrol to Salzburg, we leave the Bärschlagalm, which is overcrowded with electric mountain bikers, on the right and always walk along the reservoir to the …

In the Alps you have to take advantage of good weather straight away, because the weather can change quickly, especially north of the main Alpine ridge. Today we did an easy but very beautiful and varied tour. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Very nice round. Unfortunately you have to walk about 4km on the road and depending on the season it can be very busy. September is highly recommended

May 24, 2024,#681 Rund um den Durlassboden inkl. Finkau

A visit to Finkau is actually a must, because it is not only a very beautiful place on earth, but also because the food there is damn good. So we are planning the usual walk around the lake, starting and finishing at the famous Seestüberl. The path is unspectacular, very beautiful and, as always, easy to walk. The landscape is …

Today I made a circular walk around the reservoir of Gerlos (Tyrol) at an altitude of 1405m. It was mainly a nature walk with lots of flowers, plants, mushrooms, cows 😀 and beautiful views of the mountains and the lake... some plants I didn't know and I tried to look them up, but I might find them here made mistakes …

A leisurely walk around the two lakes was just what our legs needed after yesterday's hike. 😉 Unfortunately, there was no sunshine, but neither was the forecast rain. So we continued along the circular trail, sometimes in a drizzle through the low-hanging clouds, ☁️ always accompanied by the ringing of cowbells 🐄🔔 and the rushing of mountain streams, crossing countless …

Danger! The cows at the back of the Alpengasthof Finkau are very aggressive and will attack, especially if you walk through with a dog.

September 6, 2024,Gerlos: Um den Durlaßbodenspeicher zur Finkau im Wildgerlostal

Once around the reservoir and into the Wildgerlostal to Finkau - a highly recommended tour that is worth repeating.
Two years ago we also went past the waterfalls up to the Trisslalm. This year it was a slightly shorter but no less beautiful tour and we made up for the stops at Finkau and Bärschlagalm!
