ラターンスの湖・トップ20

シュタウゼン湖のダム壁は湖の北端を形成しており、ラッペンロッホ渓谷を抜けるハイキングコース上の際立った建造物です。壁のすぐ下では、水が人工の滝となってドゥルンビルン川に流れ落ち、印象的な自然の光景を作り出しています。 貯水池自体はほとんど空でした。これは、アッペルロッホ渓谷の入り口にある新しい水力発電所の建設作業員のせいかもしれません。

And then it lies down there like a forgotten eye of the landscape: Lake Süns. Dark and round, framed by undulating meadows where summer dwells. No noise, no boats, no paths that claim to lead to the shore. The lake simply looks back – as if you yourself were the stranger in a story that has been told here for much longer. Whoever reaches the pass stands on a line between worlds. Behind you is the lake, in front of you the path to the peak – and to the side, the view stretches far down, where the Rhine Valley disappears. On a clear day, some say you can see Lake Constance. I think you see yourself above all – smaller, but also lighter than you thought. It's not the grand gestures that characterize this hike. It's the way the light clings to the slopes, the way the wind accompanies the path, the way the trail doesn't lead you but invites you. And anyone standing up there—between the Ragazer Grat, the Sünser Joch, and the dark blue of the small lake—may notice: The most beautiful places don't scream. They whisper.

The waterfall is formed by the overflow of the Staufensee reservoir. The reservoir currently has very little water. The weir was recrossed. The path is accessible on the right side (coming from the Rappenloch Gorge).

Unfortunately there was no water in the lake, so you could walk right through it

Most visited ski touring summit in the Damüls area, well worth it. Various descent options with different levels of difficulty and exposure. Long powder fun on the north side.

It's definitely a beautiful lake when it's full to the brim. Unfortunately, it was so empty during our visit that we could only walk through it! But that was still nice 🤣👍

Unfortunately the dam is no longer accessible at the moment, so the waterfall is best seen from a distance!!!

Here again a wonderful opportunity for a break!
