Family hike to the mysterious Mittersee, which appears only briefly in the spring - with a detour to Karer See and the suspension bridge.

Did you know that Karer See has a little brother? It is the Mittersee – a hidden natural jewel in the woods that exists only for a short time in spring (around May-June depending on the weather). During this time, a meadow transforms into a lake filled with 8° cold meltwater. But by July, it usually disappears without a trace. As long as it is there, the Mittersee is considered a true natural spectacle and insider tip. The especially brave even dare a jump into the refreshing water or take a small round with the raft. This family-friendly hike not only leads to the mysterious Mittersee but also to the well-known Karer See and the suspension bridge – offering great views of the Rosengarten and Latemar along the way.
