Hintersee in Salzburger Land is an insider tip for nature lovers. Hintersee is not only the smallest village in the Salzburg Alpine foothills, but also a natural paradise in a hidden side valley. Situated in the mountains of the Osterhorn Group and on the idyllic lake, guests will find pure peace and relaxation here. Hintersee thus rightly enjoys the reputation as one of the most versatile lakes in the Salzkammergut. The 5-kilometer-long circular hiking trail, suitable for strollers and families, impresses with its undeveloped, freely accessible shore zones. The crystal-clear swimming lake offers bathing areas and lidos with all extras such as a beach volleyball court, sunbathing lawn, children's playground, petting zoo, rowing boats and more. The Alm (mountain pasture) area of Hintersee/Faistenau, with its 150 km of hiking trails, is also a paradise for mountain enthusiasts. And what could be better than cooling off in the crystal-clear lake after a hike! But Hintersee also offers a fantastic opportunity for winter hiking in winter and enjoying the snow-covered landscape along the lake.
