7 refreshing mountain lakes for warm summer days

Sparkling water surfaces, clear water in green and blue and a mountain backdrop: These seven mountain lakes invite you to dive in.

When summer days are characterized by heat and sun, there's only one thing that helps: water. Around the Aadla Chalets, mountains and cooling off can be wonderfully combined – often without even breaking a sweat.

Water fun with a view

Panoramic lake

The turquoise-blue reservoir sits high atop the Saloberkopf mountain and guarantees unobstructed views. With the striking Widderstein rocks in the background, it's a picture-perfect scene.

Tip: Those who still have energy left choose the route home via Körbersee.

Körbersee

Lake Körbersee lies in the heart of a nature and water conservation area and is only accessible on foot. Its clear water quality, lush vegetation, and the terrace of the mountain hotel make it a favorite spot.

Tip: Rowboat rental, homemade cakes and regional specialties make the trip even more enjoyable.

Pointed stone

The Steffisalp cable car offers a comfortable ride to the top. Behind the striking rock with its summit cross lies a clear reservoir with views of the Biberkopf and surrounding peaks.

Even more cooling

Hochalpsee at the foot of the Widderstein

Rugged cliffs, green mountain meadows, and perhaps a few marmots: the Hochalpsee lake lies hidden beneath the Widderstein mountain. Those who don't swim can look forward to marmot watching.

Kalbelesee at the Hochtannberg Pass

The natural high-altitude lake is located just a few meters from the Bregenzerwaldstraße road and is easily accessible by bus or car. Ideal for a quick dip on hot days.

Seebachsee in Warth

The Seebachsee lake is located just a few meters from the village square. A bathing and sunbathing platform offers relaxation above the water; adventurous swimmers can take the plunge into the cool water.

Butzensee and Lakes Hike

The emerald-green Butzensee glistens at the foot of the Mohnenfluh. Those who want to combine as many lakes as possible can link the reservoir, Panoramasee, Körbersee and Kalbelesee into a lake hike.

Summer in the chalet

Are you longing for a cool summer in the mountains? Our smaller chalets are perfect for couples or small families, while the larger chalets offer plenty of space for friends and extended families.

The private wellness area is equipped with, among other things, a hot tub that can also be filled with cold fresh water – ideal for refreshment on your own terrace.
