Jägersee
General
The Jägersee, an idyllic mountain lake near Kleinarl, is a true natural paradise. Surrounded by the majestic Radstadt Tauern, the lake offers crystal-clear water and a breathtaking backdrop for relaxing walks or leisurely boat rides. Perfect for a trip into nature!
Insider tips
As a local, I recommend visiting Jägersee early in the morning or in the late afternoon to enjoy the peace and the mirror-like surface of the lake. The swans, which are often found at the lake, make for a great photo opportunity! For those with a love for hiking, the circular trail around the lake is a great option.
Duration
The circular hike around Jägersee is easy and takes about 45 minutes to an hour. The path follows the shoreline and offers plenty of opportunities for great photo spots and relaxing breaks.
Difficulty
The path around Jägersee is easy and suitable for beginners. The well-maintained trail is mostly flat and passes through picturesque forests and meadows, making it perfect for a relaxed hike.
Season
Jägersee is a great destination year-round, especially beautiful in spring and autumn. In summer, the pleasant temperatures create ideal conditions, and in winter, the area transforms into a snowy wonderland. It's particularly magical in late autumn when the trees glow in vibrant colors and the mountain peaks are already covered in snow.
Getting there
Jägersee is easily accessible by car, with parking available directly at the lake. Alternatively, you can take public transport to Kleinarl and then hike to the lake. Bus line 530 regularly operates to Jägersee.
