Lünersee, Austria

Today, we hiked up to the stunning Lünersee and followed a trail that circled the picturesque blue lake.

The Lünersee lake dam was built in the 1950s. It collects water from the surrounding mountains, which is then used to generate hydroelectric power, contributing to the region's renewable energy supply.

Four of the more experienced hikers—Peter, Jörg, Freddi, and Bernhard—took on an extra challenge, adding a side loop to the Totlalphütte at 7,824 feet. They later rejoined us at the Lünersee Dam restaurant.

We were fortunate to have a semi-sunny day, just perfect for this adventure.

Dinner this evening was at Heuboda, a charming restaurant in the town of Brand.Read more
