If you follow the Kuchlmoosbach stream, you will see the Kuchelmooskees glacier further up. Very impressive.

Zillergründl Reservoir Dam

Highlight • Monument

You should only enter the dam wall if you have a head for heights. The hike to the Alm (small Tibet) is worth it. There is a lot to discover like plants or animals

Staumauerblick

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are many places to rest along the reservoir in the direction of the Klein Tibet Hütte. Benches with creative names. I don't find the names funny. Rather fitting.

Probably the most rustic alpine pasture in the Zillertal 🙂 Very nicely located - embedded in a wonderful mountain panorama! It can be reached from the dam in about one …

September 6, 2024,Zillergrund-Stausee-Plauener Hütte (abgebrochen) - Klein Tibet-Adlerblick
...today (Fri. 06.09.) the goal was to be the Plauener Hut at an altitude of 2363 m, which can be reached from the beautiful side valley of the Zillergrund reservoir, which is at an altitude of around 1800 m. We covered the first 800 m by car on a narrow toll road (10 €) to the Gasthof Bärenbad, which is …

Yes, the beautiful Little Tibet in the Zillertal Valley. I was up there last year on my folding bike and told myself I wanted to take the bus up! Another fantastic day in a wonderful place. It was just before the season opened, and it starts next week. The fences were moved today, and the animals will be brought up …

The "Path of Reflection" at the Zillergründl Reservoir is lined with numerous photo panels and wonderful sayings. Today I reached the Hohenaualm at 1,863 meters above sea level, also known as the "Little Tibet of the Zillertal."

A few days ago, I had cut my e-bike tour short 1.5 km from the alpine pasture because a flat tire forced me …

By car we can get to the Bärenbad, from where we can take the bus to the Zillergründl dam.

So the hike started at the dam wall. From there we first went to the Plauener Hütte. A dreamlike, but also strenuous path. Surefootedness was definitely required, and at one point or another a head for heights.

Many of you surely know the tour, you have to do it at least once, even if it is easy. Fantastic panorama in glorious weather, more is not possible. With 35 degrees in the valley it was easy to bear it up here. Recommendation for the journey, definitely take public transport, e.g. from Mayrhofen by bus, or park the car …

Due to the weather, a cozy round 🌞🥵.
By bus to the barrier wall in the Zillergrund. From here we go through the tunnel in the direction of Little Tibet with the Hohenaualm. After briefly considering climbing up to the Plauener Hütte, we stick to the walking path to the end of the reservoir. After a short break, we go …

Small hike to little Tibet. First through the tunnel and then always along the lake. Beginning in the fog and on the track it became wonderfully clear and sunny.

Before Ascension Day, check the opening days of the Hohenau Alm—it's worth a visit—rustic—delicious—friendly. 🫶
