The Hintersteiner See is a mountain lake in the Wilder Kaiser nature reserve and belongs to the municipality of Scheffau in the Austrian state of Tyrol. The lake was formed during the last ice age and lies at an altitude of 882 m above sea level. Underground springs fill the lake with crystal clear water.

The views are indescribably beautiful.

The Tauernschecken goats are a robust, vital, sure-footed and long-lived mountain goat breed that is highly endangered. Both sexes are horned and brightly colored. In the Kaiser Mountains - as at Hintersteiner See - breeders ensure that the most exclusive goat breeds are preserved.
