August 2, 2023,Österreich: Tirol: Reutte: Kleiner Plansee, Heiterwanger See

Due to the absence of roads, the Heiterwanger See is very quiet in contrast to the small Plansee. Only now and then an airplane and the passenger ships can be heard. And of course the people, the lake is very beautiful, easily accessible and moderately overcrowded. There are various places where you can go into the water. The mountains all …

December 20, 2023,Heiterwang: Heiterwanger-See - Tag 3 - Plan-See, Kiosk-Seespitz Tirol...Heiterwanger See

Our day today began with a hearty, first-class breakfast.
Freshly strengthened, we started on the right side of Lake Heiterwang, which we followed to the bridge and tributary of Lake PlanSee. Crossing the bridge, we turned right to follow the hiking trail on the left bank of the PlanSee. After about 1.5 km we arrived at another bridge that spanned …

Following a beautiful tradition from my years of hiking, today we went on a short hike on the last day of the year. The two lakes are ideal for this, embedded in the Alps with a fantastic panorama. The sun also reported again at the end of the year and accompanied me for a while. Time to reflect on the …

Today we circled the Heiterwanger See.
Because we were there quite early, we were of course given a parking spot 😁 and had almost peace and quiet for the first half of the lake 🙏 We parked at the end of the Plansee.
Day ticket 5€.
At the end, of course, we went to the Plansee to cool down 🤩😎

July 5, 2025,Heiterwanger See Runde

Farewell tour around Lake Heiterwang. A beautiful, relaxing circular route with a place to stop for refreshments. Our only recommendation...It's definitely more relaxing during the week, as the first section is also used by cyclists, which makes it a bit crowded...
