One of my absolute favourite places - the Langbathsee lakes in the beautiful Salzkammergut and accessible via Ebensee am Traunsee. Hiking trail from the front Langbathsee to the rear Langbathsee on a circular route.<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are these days - sometimes several in a row - sometimes with a longer break. Days when I don't know what to do, pack up my girlfriend and my dog and drive to the Langbathsee. The Langbathsee lakes are always worth a visit and no matter when you arrive, you can take a photo from the same vantage point and it always looks different - a unique atmosphere every time!<\/p>\n

A running joke in my circle of acquaintances: My Instagram Feed<\/a> consists of 90 % of Langbathseen photos.<\/p>\n

What makes this place so special?<\/span><\/h3>\n

From the mobile phone radio station to the leisurely circular hiking trail and the great photo spots, there is everything you need for a successful short hike. The hiking trail is ideal for families (including those with pushchairs), children and dogs. There are only forest paths, which make for a great hiking experience.<\/p>\n

At one point, there is a short and slight ascent - but it is definitely manageable even for less fit hikers and well worth the effort.<\/p>\n

ATTENTION: We expressly point out that we accept no liability for accidents or possibly closed paths. Check the availability of the trail before you set off and check your own fitness.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Depending on your pace, it takes around 2 - 3 hours to walk the approx. 8 kilometres, including short breaks. However, you can also shorten the hike and only walk around the front Langbathsee or visit the rear Langbathsee without going round it. This means you can adapt the route to suit your mood and fitness level.<\/p>\n

Can you swim in Langbathsee?<\/span><\/h3>\n

There are more than enough bathing opportunities along the Langbath lakes - bathing is also officially permitted. Please note that dogs are not allowed to swim along the sunbathing lawns and in the marked beach area. Don't worry, dear dog owners - it's nicer further back anyway, where the little rascal is also allowed in. \ud83d\ude04<\/p>\n

Arrival \/ start of the circular trail around the Langbath lakes<\/span><\/h4>\n

You can arrive by car or by using the local Traunseetaxi shuttle service. Please note that there is no reception upstairs to call a taxi - you would have to organise this in advance. There are plenty of parking spaces available, but they often fill up relatively quickly. If you arrive early, you will certainly have an advantage in the search. The start is right by the lake at the car park. There is also a free public toilet where you can relieve yourself before the adventure.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Season and time of year<\/span><\/h4>\n

As already mentioned above - the Langbath lakes are a dream at any time of year, at any time of day and in any weather. Just drop by and enjoy.<\/p>\n

Please take care not to destroy the cross-country ski trails around the Langbath lakes in winter when there is snow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Catering and break at the Langbathsee circular trail<\/span><\/h4>\n

If you have your own snack with you, you can rest and enjoy your provisions at the countless beautiful spots around the Langbathsee lakes. If you prefer to stop off somewhere, you can visit the Langbathsee St\u00fcberl at the car park before or after your hike. Please note the Opening hours.<\/a><\/p>\n

Don't hesitate - do it!<\/span><\/h4>\n

Let's go, pack your bags and off you go to Langbathsee. Feel free to leave a comment - I would be delighted!<\/p>\n
