Slowly, the sun rays make their way and gradually start to hit the calm water surface. Through the reflection, it looks like the lake is glittering golden at these spots.
Crystal-clear water from deep mountain springs in the Rauchkofel region makes Lake Tristach a unique natural gem in the Lienz Dolomites. Thanks to its sheltered location and sunshine all day long, the lake reaches a pleasant 25°C in the summer months – perfect for a refreshing swim amidst unspoilt nature.
Lake Tristach is a delight even outside the swimming season: In autumn, the vibrant colours of the forests are reflected on the water’s surface, whilst in winter the frozen lake becomes a paradise for ice skaters and winter hikers.
As the private owner of the western shore, the Parkhotel Tristachersee offers its guests exclusive access to the water, rowing boats and SUPs – for unforgettable moments on one of Tyrol’s most beautiful lakes.
Nestled within an idyllic nature reserve, Lake Tristach covers around seven hectares – just 5 km south of the Dolomite town of Lienz. Surrounded by dense forests and an impressive mountain backdrop, it is a true haven for nature lovers and those seeking peace and quiet.
A particular highlight is the “Alte See”, located about a ten-minute walk above. As a natural source lake, it feeds Lake Tristach with fresh, crystal-clear water, making it one of the purest bathing lakes in Tyrol.
The entire area is criss-crossed by beautiful, flat walking paths that invite you to enjoy relaxing strolls. Whether you’re taking a leisurely walk, relaxing and soaking up the atmosphere, or actively experiencing nature – Lake Tristach and its nature park offer unforgettable moments amidst the unspoilt landscape of East Tyrol, which is particularly enchanting in autumn.
