Review:
Gosau Lake is a small alpine lake at the foot of the Dachstein, the second tallest mountain the Northern Limestone Alps. From the lake’s shores are spectacular views of the Dachstein glacier, rising high above the valley. The mountain lake is the perfect place to cool down after a summer or autumn hike, and itself a popular destination for sight seeing, mountain and valley views. In addition to swimming, visitors can rent a boat to explore the glacial Gosau Lake, dive in its crystal clear waters, or adventure through the fixed rope rock climb at the water’s edge. The World Heritage Region is easily accessed from the nearby town of Hallstatt.
