A must-do hike for every visitor to Lake Wolfgang

Nestled in a valley between Schafberg and Hoheneck, Schwarzensee is a popular destination for visitors to the Atter and Wolfgangsee regions, offering a variety of trailheads and an access road from Rußbach. The ascent from St. Wolfgang is enchantingly beautiful—a perfect introductory hike with no difficulties—and, combined with the descent to Strobl and the return trip by bus or boat to the starting point, makes for an ideal loop.

From the center of St. Wolfgang, head east along Michael-Pacher-Straße to the tunnel entrance of the bypass and, immediately after that, to the Wolfgangsee Tourism Information Office. There, turn left onto the paved road and head north across meadows up to Ahornplatz, 610 m. Follow the road, then take meadow trail No. 28 at the edge of the forest to the right (east), later ascending through the forest to the Holzerbauer junction, 680 m. Follow the dirt road, then take the cart path across meadows and through the forest eastward to the road you’ll cross. Follow this road uphill to the left toward the Maurus Chapel (fork) and continue eastward to “Sattelhöhe,” 790 m. Descend on the other side to the Denreithalm and into the Schwarzenbachgraben. On its left side, walk on level ground through the forest to the Schwarzensee, 716 m (restaurants: Alm-Stadl and “Zur Lore”).From the “Zur Lore” inn, take the flat road No. 28 along the lake’s western shore northward to the Bacherlalm, 720 m, then
