The Soilasee is not always visible!
It is still worth stopping by here, it is a beautiful hike from or to Laber, Ettaler Manndl, Höllstein, Schoberwaldkreuz and Schartenkopf

Today I went with my visit to the Kaiserschmarrn Essen in the mountains and we chose the Laber as our destination. Find it very beautiful and impressive from the landscape and it is always worth a visit.

If you are inexperienced, you should only tackle the via ferrata on the Ettaler Manndl 🏔️ with the appropriate equipment (rope, carabiner, etc. 🧗‍♂️). It looks easier from below than it actually is. 😮
