Hiking
The Hintersteiner See is located in the middle of the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve. It is the cleanest natural swimming lake in Tyrol and lies at an altitude of 883 meters. A real jewel in the midst of an impressive mountain landscape that you can easily reach on foot with this hike.
It starts on the edge of Söll, at the level of the Franzlhof. Immediately after a few meters you will come across the idyllic moor lake and then climb up towards Hinterstein. Behind you there is always a great panorama that lets you see all the way to Söll.
Shortly before you reach the Hintersteiner See, you can not only take a break at the organic farm Pension Maier, but also enjoy the breathtaking view of your destination. After another 600 meters you will finally meet the green-blue water of the natural lake.
On the lake itself there are not only several places to stop for a break, but also a lido. With a jump into the cold water you complete your hike and then you can take the hiking bus Hintersteiner See to Scheffau and change there to the KaiserJet to Söll. So you can get back to your starting point quickly.

Hintersteiner See
Highlight • Lake
A beautiful path leads around the lake, which is asphalted from the car park to the Goingstätthof snack station to the west and is therefore also suitable for pushchairs. The south bank, on the other hand, rises slightly and offers fantastic views of the Wilder Kaiser reflected in the water. A popular photo motif!
A large parking lot is available for a fee. The circular route is also a wonderful hike in winter!
