Via the Bräualm to the Hohensee lake

Water accompanies you in all facets on this hike! You can expect natural meanders at the Bräualm, the waterfall in Dürrmoos and the picturesque Hohensee.

From St. Nikolai in the Großsölktal you hike along the Bräualmbach, past the Dürrmoos waterfall to the Hohensee. There, in addition to several dilapidated huts, there are two alpine pastures built of marble stones, which are, however, not managed. The lake itself is surrounded by high mountains and offers the perfect resting place for you.

More information

Past the Gasthof Gamsjäger with the small department store and the church you go to the last houses in the town. At the barrier, follow the forest road to the left towards Bräualm - path marker #702. After about a kilometer you reach the pasture area of the Bräualm, where the Bräualmbach meanders through the valley. The buildings of the Bräualm appear on the other side of the bank. The path leads you further into the valley to the crossing of the Bräualmbach at the Kreuzsteg. Here you can enjoy nature and the view of the Dürrmoos waterfall on a bench.

The climb to Hohensee begins from the waterfall via the hiking trail. On the ascent you cross the forest road twice before staying on it the third time and continuing over three bends to its end. Here you now follow a slightly wider hiking trail to the Hohenseealm. At the lake you will finally find a nice place to rest. Return on the same route.
