View of Schwarzsee

Highlight • Lake

On narrow but well-marked trails, it goes from Lake Steirer to Schwarzsee. The path is worthwhile, because the quiet lake is only visited by a few hikers. In addition, you'll find the cozy "Wia dahoam Hittn" just above Lake Schwarzsee.

You definitely need decent shoes, as parts of the path are really "scrambley"...

A beautiful hike on the Tauplitzalm to actually 6 lakes. Somehow only discovered 5. The route was mostly on mountain trails and easy to walk.

The Tauplitzalm is located in the Styrian part of the Salzkammergut. You can reach it from Bad Mitterndorf via a 10 km long toll road - €14 for a car up to 5 …
