Mooserboden Dam

Highlight • Lake

From the Alpenhaus boiler case, you can take the bus up to the reservoir. Buses run regularly and it goes through various narrow tunnels. In between you have to leave the bus and drive with a large inclined elevator (covered). Then you drive again with the provided buses. The whole thing is free with the Kaprun Summer Card. A free parking garage is located just before the bus stop at the Alpenhaus, where there is a nice place to stop for a bite to eat.

Finally, a hike along the Mooserboden reservoir. A great path with no significant inclines but a few small climbing spots.
The absolute highlight is the level at the end of the lake with the waterfalls. It's worth it!

I actually wanted to do a longer hike, but then I decided to take the tour of the dam wall and the museum in the hilltop castle.
The hike afterwards along the Mooserboden reservoir has hardly any vertical meters, but is very demanding. You walk almost the whole time along the abyss, you have to overcome glaciers, glacial streams and …
