Romantic Wildensee at Kranzberg

After ‘conquering’ the summit of Hoher Kranzberg, the circular route via the romantic Wildensee back to the car park at Luttensee or Mittenwald is ideal for a family outing or bike tour. As the path winds through rolling meadows and light mountain forest, we soon reach the small lake with the magnificent mountain panorama of the Northern Karwendel Range behind it. A small raft lies on the shore, which guests of the nearby Berggasthof Wildensee can use to punt out onto the lake for a swim. The surrounding meadows offer plenty of space for playing and resting. In the late afternoon, the light conditions are perfect for beautiful photos; it also becomes increasingly peaceful for a relaxed day in the mountains. Exactly where this picture was taken, there’s a small bench. Once you sit down, you won’t want to leave in a hurry…
