Vorderer Gosausee

Highlight • Lake

From this location you have the perfect postcard image: the lake lies quietly at your feet and the grey mountains and the blue sky are reflected picturesquely in the water. Still beautiful even the hundredth time.

The way can take off. Actually it should be called Oberer Gosausee. ;) The effort is worth it.

It's best to start your hike early in the morning at the free parking lot 1, which is only 1-2 minutes away from Vorderer Gosausee. In the morning you can easily find a free parking space (it fills up quickly) and you can marvel at the most beautiful light on the lake.
The path then leads past the front lake, …

Today was a wonderful day on our hike along the 3 Gossau lakes. The autumn colours of the trees are already coming to an end, but the reflections of this magnificent colour and mountain backdrop are magically attractive. The lush green of the moss is in stark contrast to the colour of the leaves and the water/waterfalls.
A magnificent natural …

Today we went to the back of the Gosausee in heavy rain... the path to get there was longer than expected because of the many little frogs 🐸. But it was worth it. Anyone can do it in sunshine. 😎
