    The Hintersteiner See is a fantastically beautiful bathing lake in the middle of the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve with crystal-clear water and a lido. The lake is 56 hectares in size and up to 36 meters deep.

    A beautiful path leads around the lake, which is asphalted from the car park to the GoingstÀtthof 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!

      At Hintersteiner See, in the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve, in whose water the peaks of the Kaiser Mountains are impressively reflected, there is a public bathing beach where you can also swim. A visit is also worthwhile if you don't want to swim, because the area around the lake with its meadows and forests invites the visitor and observer to linger and relax. Nice restaurants on the lake or near the lake complete the offer.
      The lake tour is particularly beautiful. Again and again an impressive picture presents itself here, on the one hand the wonderful panorama and on the other hand the mountain peaks of the Wilder Kaiser are always reflected in the lake.

        The lake Hintersteiner See is picturesquely situated at the foot of the Widen Kaiser. It is interesting that the lake is dammed on one side of the lake ("front") and on the other side ("back"), the water is derived for power generation along the stone stairs.
