Bridge over the connecting canal between Lake Plansee and Lake Heiterwanger See

Highlight • Bridge

Wooden bridge over the connecting canal from Lake Heiterwang to Lake Plansee. There are opportunities for a relaxing rest with a view of the two lakes. If the cold water is not an obstacle, you can also take a refreshing bath.

Plansee

Highlight • Lake

The Heiterwangersee is the twin lake of the Plansee. The Plansee belongs to the municipality of Reutte, the Heiterwangersee to the municipality of Heiterwang, but they still form a unit because they are connected by a narrow, 300-meter-long water channel and together they reach the second largest lake area in Tyrol.

The water quality is excellent, the temperatures are just right for a refreshing bath on hot summer days and there are wonderfully beautiful bathing bays on the banks. The many lakes for leisure activities also make the two lakes so popular. Everything from beach volleyball to mini golf can be found in the immediate vicinity. You can rent rowing and electric boats, or have a stimulating sea breeze blowing around your nose on a ship. The MS Margarethe and the MS Wilhelm sail from Heiterwanger See and Plansee from mid-May to mid-October. Four entry and exit points are available, so a boat trip can be wonderfully combined with beautiful walks near the shore. There is also a Nordic Walking route right on the lake and it is ideal for ambitious training sessions.

The Heiterwangersee and the Plansee also attract many divers. They appreciate the diverse underwater flora and fauna as well as the good visibility. Diving is only allowed at marked places and only with the purchase of a day pass. However, the Heiterwangersee is freely accessible for bathers.

It's quite hot today and after visiting Linderhof Palace we're going to relax on the Plansee's bathing beach. We unpack chairs, books and picnic blankets and make ourselves comfortable in the shade. But even if we want to, we rarely manage to "chill" for more than 2-3 hours. We are already at an altitude of almost 1,000 m, but you …

It's working...because I, the clumsy idiot, once again forgot to close the cup, the coffee spilled in my backpack 🤦
At KM 11, I realized that the coffee had killed the power bank and the battery was only at 20% 🥺.
We actually wanted to run around Lake Heiterwang, so we literally ran against the battery to at least finish …

Explored the Plansee today, a beautiful lake hidden in the Austrian Tirol near Reutte. When I arrived it was a freezing –4°C. There’s a very convenient parking spot right in front of Hotel Forelle where I started my hike.
