Lake Pfrill near Kufstein is a small but idyllic natural gem amidst dense forests. It lies about 100 meters above Kufstein at 612 meters above sea level and is the smallest of the six bathing lakes west of the city. Lake Pfrill is freely accessible and free to use. In summer, it serves primarily as a bathing lake and excursion destination; hikers appreciate it as part of the "Four Lakes Hike," which also includes Lake Längsee, Lake Egelsee, and Lake Hechtsee.

Lake Hechtsee is managed by the Hechtsee Fishing Association, which consists of two clubs: the "First Sport Fishing Club Kufstein" and the "Hechtsee Fishing Club." There are special regulations regarding catches and catch sizes. For example, fishing enthusiasts are advised that a catch window (40-65 cm) may apply to carp. This means that fish below or above this size should be released whenever possible to ensure population and recruitment.

In addition to predatory fish such as pike and zander, Lake Hecht is home to various non-predatory fish species, including carp. Carp tend to prefer shallower areas or shore zones with reeds, underwater plants, and bottom structures where they find food (e.g., insect larvae, worms, and plant parts). Due to the lake's considerable depth (maximum of approximately 57 meters) and clear water, carp likely retreat to coastal shore areas during warmer months, where food availability and temperatures are more favorable. Their well-being is limited in cooler depths.

The Kaiserbach Bridge will henceforth be renamed the Dora Winkler-Herrmann Bridge. This will commemorate the city and parish of Dora Winkler-Herrmann (1910–1983), the first woman ordained in the Evangelical Church of Austria—and a prominent figure who worked here in the Tyrolean lowlands.
