    Crystal clear high mountain lakes, but very cold. The Wangenitzsee can also be circumnavigated. In addition to the two lakes mentioned, there are numerous small pools and swampy areas, which makes this area very attractive.

      On the one hand framed by towering rock walls, the Wangenitzsee offers you an unforgettable picture. The lake is the largest mountain lake in the province of Carinthia and the namesake for the cozy mountain hut on its northern shore.
