A simply fantastic mountain lake at the foot of the Granatspitze. It is fed by glacier water - the toes really only keep brave people in! 😉

August 9, 2021,Dabaklamm – Kalser Tauernhaus Runde von Winkl

Hike with the whole family. But while the kids are jumping around you like young gazelles, I'm glad that I arrived halfway alive in :-)

September 8, 2021,Wanderung durch Dabaklamm zum Dorfer See und zurück.

It should have been a first ascent to the summit today. But since our little run yesterday afternoon was more strenuous than expected, we rescheduled for a valley ascent from the Dabaklamm to the Dorfersee. It's 20 km there and back, but not that steep. About 500 HM are distributed over the 20 km. We mastered that with a sporty …

July 25, 2024,202407 K2: Kals Dorfersee (1935 m) ☀️☀️☀️

The Dorfertal used to be difficult to reach. With the construction of a path through the Daberklamm for pedestrians and later an unlit tunnel for the farmers' agricultural vehicles, the alpine pasture management in the Dorfertal became easier. Today, hikers and cyclists also use these access points to the Dorfertal.

The Dorfer See is idyllically surrounded by mountains. The ascent is really doable.

August 10, 2025,Von Kals a. G. Taurer zum Dorfersee – Nationalpark Hohe Tauern

One of my most beautiful, but also longest, tours in the "Hohe Tauern." My partner cursed me that day because I had chosen the tour only as a one-way tour to Dorfersee and had made it sound appealing with an easy, not-too-long hike.
Without any bad thoughts, but blessed with "naivety," I didn't consider that the tour would have to …

September 4, 2025,Dabaklamm - Dorfer See

Today we went to Kals and then over the Dabaklamm Gorge to Dorfer See. A very beautiful hike through the gorge and the valley that opens up afterward. Then we continued for another hour on a mountain path to Dorfer See.
Two nice places to stop for refreshments were also a must.

Today we were in the beautiful Dorfertal, here every few minutes there is a new natural jewel to experience, at the beginning the very mighty Dabaklamm, then the Dorfertal, then the Dorfersee and those who like can branch off to the left shortly after the Kalser Tauernhaus up to the Stotzbachfall viewpoint (it goes up a nicely laid out, but …
