The path around the lake Gosau is a beautiful walk which can be enjoyed with the view to the Dachstein.

Due to the danger of avalanches the path is closed during the winter season.
The best place to start is on the left-hand side of the lake. There you can take a leisurely stroll along the lake with a view of the majestic Dachstein. Flanked partly by steep rock faces and partly by forest, you pass a meadow that invites you to rest and swim. At the far end of the lake, a forest road branches off in the direction of Hinterer Gosausee. This path can be used for a short hike.  To stay on the circular route, keep to the right. On the other side of the lake, you will eventually pass crystal-clear streams and springs, where you may even see the odd fire salamander.
