A mountain crystal, nestled in the heart of the magnificent Mieminger Kette mountain range - the Seebensee. The lake Seebensee is a sparkling turquoise gem, situated among majestic mountain peaks and surrounded by the hiking paradise of the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena. The Seebensee invites all hiking enthusiasts to marvel at its beauty and the brave to enjoy a cool refreshment in its crystal-clear waters.

The Seeben waterfall is the outflow of Lake Seebensee, where the water plunges into the valley from a dizzying height. Along the Seebenfall, a via ferrata leads up the rock face directly to the Seebensee. Attention, the Seebensteig is only suitable for experienced climbers! 

The crystal clear Drachensee is located at an altitude of  1,910 masl and is 28 meters deep. The mountain lake is situated just above the Seebensee and below the Coburger Hütte. The Drachensee is the highest lake in the region, which is why you can expect frosty water temperatures. You can get a brief glimpse of the picturesque summer hike to Seebensee and Drachensee here, on YouTube. In summer there`s also the possibility to do a bike & hike tour.

Above the Ehrwalder Alm and at the foot of the Igelkopf, mountain sports enthusiasts will find a small but beautiful mountain lake, the Igelsee. It is located at an altitude of 1,585 meters, surrounded by meadows. Depending on the weather and the water level, the lake is visible on the route to Leutasch/Gaistal and can be reached from Ehrwalder Alm on the way to the Seebensee. Some maps show the Igelsee as Negelsee or Egelsee.
From the top station of the Ehrwalder Almbahn cable car, the Igelseerunde is a beautiful but sometimes challenging and demanding hike. You can find more information about the tour here.

You will find everything you could wish for on your summer vacation at Lake Heiterwanger See - beach, boat trips, boat hire, fishing, stand-up paddling and of course swimming and bathing in the gorgeous turquoise water with a fantastic panorama. This is truly a vacation paradise, and we're sure you'll find plenty to refresh and delight you here!

Climbing is the name of the game here. Climbing enthusiasts will enjoy the Häselgehr waterfall in both summer and winter.  Whether it's the via ferrata under the waterfall, a quick round in the climbing garden or even ice climbing in winter, there's always something to do here.

If you're not up for climbing, no problem! A visit to the waterfall is also possible without climbing and is definitely worthwhile! There's the possibility to take a lovely and easy walk to the Häselgehr waterfall and the St. Anna chapel.
