Grosssee and View of Schneiderkogel

Highlight • Lake

Unfortunately, I only had a view of the Schneiderkogel when it was covered in fog and it can also be very beautiful.

Here you hike directly along the idyllic Großsee. You can reach it and the species-rich, alpine high karst flora that surrounds it in the course of several beautiful hikes. You can also fish here - from July 1st to September 15th. A real natural treasure that awaits you here. Enjoy it! 😊

View of Großsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the 6-lake hike you will visit the Krallersee, Großsee, Märchensee, Steirersee, Schwarzsee and the small Tauplitzsee. Hard to believe that so many unique mountain lakes can be found in this small room. The big lake spoils you on your hike with a panorama of deep blue water and gray, rocky mountains - pure alpine idyll.

Großsee and Traweng

Highlight • Lake

The beautiful lake is even more beautiful when the sun is shining but you have to take it as it is.

Krallersee

Highlight • Lake

The Krallersee glitters quietly and quietly in the sunlamp and awaits you on your 6-lake hike. The water meadows invite you to take a break to enjoy the view of the water and the surrounding mountain landscape.

Tauplitzalm and view of Lake Tauplitzsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Tauplitzalm lies at an altitude of 1,600 to 2,000 meters. There are six lakes on the high plateau, making the Tauplitzalm the largest high plateau in Central Europe. A paradise for hikers.

October 23, 2022,Tauplitz Alm 4 Seen Runde

Great hike on the Tauplitz! Suitable for families with beautiful views and a few places to rest and let your soul dangle. The way up leads over a fee-based alpine road. Costs in 2022 were 13 euros for a car, whether alone or with 5 passengers

May 31, 2022,Steiermark: Tauplitz-Alm: 4-Seen-Rundwanderung 🏞🌞

Today we actually drove up the Tauplitzalm-Alpenstraße (toll) to the Tauplitzalm, because the chairlifts aren't running yet. The Tauplitzalm is Europe's highest high lake plateau (1620 m) with 6 lakes. We have visited 4 of them (1st the Tauplitzsee 2nd the Großsee 3rd the fairytale lake and 4th the Krallersee). When the weather was great 🌞 we could always enjoy …

Today we went on a rest tour to Krallersee and Märchensee. Two lakes like from a postcard.

Maybe I can get the boys excited about taking the chairlift 🤔
Yep. €32 for a family. That's OK.
There are several options for hiking up there. The big lake circuit wouldn't have been possible in time anyway. So the short fairytale lake circuit. Shortened a bit because the road is not a hiking trail!!! So only a short stretch …

Very beautiful alpine pasture many paths many destinations would be possible... many places to stop for refreshments.... it was hot! Very beautiful Alpine road! It can also be reached by lift! A successful day despite the heat! 4 out of 6 lakes!

We actually wanted to do all 6 lakes. But there was still a lot of snow and the hiking trails were very difficult to walk on. Tip: It's definitely better in 8 days.
