    The Gosau Lakes lie like two jewels, nestled at the foot of the Dachstein and framed by the spectacular Gosaukamm. For trail runners, there is, among other routes, this loop which takes us not only around the front Gosausee but also back to the Holzmeisteralm at the rear Gosausee

    Roadbook

    We start at Gasthaus Gosausee, from where you already have a beautiful view of the Gosausee and the surrounding mountain scenery. Once a year, the Gosausee loop run starts here, which circles the front Gosausee over a distance of a little more than 4 km (but at 1000m elevation). We turn right and run along forest roads by the lake shore to the rear end of the front Gosausee. From here, we increasingly run through denser forest, which occasionally clears, and we reach the Gosaulacke. The high rock faces and sunshine on beautiful days are reflected in the blue-green water. The path leads us straight ahead on forest roads, but now with more inclines. The last incline before we leave the forest again is the steepest. However, we are rewarded after about 200m altitude gain with an incredible view. With renewed enthusiasm, we run for a refreshment to the Holzmeisteralm at the rear end of the lake. The fresh Kaiserschmarrn is especially popular here.

    After the refreshment, we return the same way. In the alpine area after the Gosaulacke, the path now branches, and this time we follow the other shore. We continue running, beneath us at the shore runs a short practice via ferrata, then we reach the Gosausee road, which leads us directly back to the starting point.
