The water is crystal clear and has a slightly dark blue hue. That is why the Altausseer See is also called the "dark blue inkwell".

A fenced panoramic path about seven kilometers long leads around the lake. The view of the Dachstein, as well as the different perspectives of Loser, Trisselwand, Tressenstein, and Sandling will inspire.

Those who want to shorten the path or prefer a more comfortable way to the Seewiese can take the solar boat across the Altausseer See.
