Beautiful path along the Hechtsee with a great mountain backdrop. You can walk below, directly on the water, over hill and dale. Or a little further up, on a wider path.

A beautiful mountain lake that cuts a particularly great figure in winter and autumn ;)

The lake is located in the Brandenberg Alps west of Kiefersfelden (Bavaria) and north of Kufstein (Tyrol). With an area of around 0.28 km², it is the largest and, with a maximum depth of 57 m, the deepest of the six lakes west of Kufstein. The Thierberg (721 m) rises not far from its southern bank. The German-Austrian border and thus the border between Bavaria and Tyrol runs just a few meters from the north shore.
The largest tributary of the Hechtsee is the small Hechtbach (also called the Hechtseebach), which comes from a small valley between the Hechtsee and the Längsee. The water surface is usually at 542 me. The outflow of the lake, which crosses the national border after a few meters, flows after a small waterfall into the Kieferbach, which is about 35 m below.
Other lakes in and around Kufstein are the Egelsee, the Längsee, the Maistaller Lacke, the Pfrillsee, the Stimmersee and the Thiersee.

The circular path around the lake is about 2.6 to 2.7 km long, relatively easy to walk, and also popular with families.
