Plansee

Highlight • Lake

Idyllic mountain lake (reservoir) – to ride along the shore, you can take the road, but with an MTB or Gravel, the panoramic path away from traffic is even better.

July 2, 2022,🇦🇹 um den Daniel
The youngsters are doing their trail tour today and we are going around the Daniel to the Plansee and via Haiterwangersee, which lies deep green between the mountain massif. Surprisingly few tourists were on the way, so we could cycle the narrow path from the Seespitze to the bridge without any problems. Great weather, great tour.

A nice tour, but after a long break it was quite exhausting for me.

I had actually planned this tour for sunrise, starting at Lake Plansee, but 1. I overslept and 2. there would have been no sunrise anyway. The clouds were too dense in the morning. During the day the clouds gave way and the sun burned down nicely …

Very nice tour with lots of impressions. Skilled riders can also manage it with a trekking bike. 1x 500W was just enough. Crossing the Fernpass road is a bit tricky.

At the beginning, it was dry at the waterfall, then permanently 🚿
But as compensation, there were some amazing views and a snail slalom at Lake Plansee 🐌🔃🔄 🤩
The lake and the high-altitude trail are fantastic, and the camping bistro and the entire complex are very nice.

As of June 11, 2025: Unfortunately, the path above Planseestraße was closed for a while, so we had to ride a section along the busy country road called Planseestraße.

Then we returned to the planned route, which was, however, partly flat. Doable for mountain bike beginners and gravel bikers. Watch out for hikers, as the path is narrow.

Wonderful round, with an e-bike, but great scenery and views 🤩

The morning brought short showers until 8 a.m., but they dissolved in the sun from Eschenlohe.
Before Griesen we park at the Ochsenhütte.

In Griesen you go up to the Plansee, which is wonderfully quiet with its green color between the mountains. On the right bank we take the elevated road from which we have a great view of …
