Plansee round trip

Plansee, together with Heiterwanger See, is used as a reservoir by the Reutte power plants; the water level is lowered during the winter half-year. Divers are especially enthusiastic about Plansee because of its high visibility depths. Up to 15 meters can be seen in this Class I quality water—ideal conditions for observing the rich animal and plant life that opens up underwater.

On Plansee and Heiterwanger See operates one of the highest commercial shipping lines in Austria, offering cruises from late May into autumn. A trip on one of the scheduled ships (timetable) is an experience not to be missed. They take you through a canal to the neighboring Heiterwanger See, which in beauty and naturalness is by no means inferior to Plansee. For those who prefer to explore on their own, electric and pedal boats are available for rent.

In the eponymous village of Plansee (municipality of Breitenwang) there is a campsite, a dive camp, and a regularly served ship landing stage. On the north shore of Plansee runs the road over Ammersattel between Reutte and Ettal (Kloster Ettal) (Linderhof) or Oberammergau, both on the German side.

Camping site "Seespitze": The Seespitze campsite is terraced, offering every visitor a beautiful and unobstructed view of Plansee. Especially popular with families with children are the forest pitches, where fathers and children become “wild dropouts.” Directly at the campsite is the boat landing stage of the Plansee shipping line. The free sunbathing lawn also adjoins the campsite. The campsite is an ideal starting point for hikes around the lake or to the nearby Stuiben waterfalls. Guided canyoning tours, rafting tours, mountain hikes, and summit climbs make any outdoor enthusiast's heart beat faster. A dive camp is also nearby.

Camping site Sennalpe: The idyllically located Sennalpe campsite at the end of the lake offers pitches for caravans and motorhomes as well as spaces for tents of all kinds and is immediately behind the spaciously designed sunbathing lawn. You will find a kiosk for your purchases directly on the campsite.

Restaurant "Fischer am See": Eating is a need, enjoying is an art.
