This circular hiking trail reflects the colors of water from Caribbean blue to crystal clear to meadow green with its four lakes shimmering in different colors depending on the season. However, attention should also be paid to the small treasures in and around the lakes.
The path leads from the hamlet of Lehn in Längenfeld over a trail to Stabele Alm and past the Leckalm across lush green pastures along a ridge to the first of the four mountain lakes, the Plattachsee. From there you can already see the newly created trail that leads over the Felder Scharte, past the salt licks for the sheep, down steep grassy slopes to a new natural spectacle, the White Lake. It is the largest and deepest of the four lakes and invites you with its milky green color and numerous rest areas for a short relaxing break. Slowly it then continues along a beautiful high path from the White Lake to the somewhat lower situated Lower Spitzig Lake. Nestled in rough mountain landscape, it rests there very quietly and has a calming aura. From there it goes on to the last of the four lakes, the Hauersee. Depending on the season, it shimmers milky green to turquoise. Surrounded by the so-called Fünffingerspitzen, you can once again briefly enjoy the pleasant tranquility of the 2300 meters altitude before you start your descent.
On the way down, you have a fantastic view of the Innerbergtal and the Hauertal on the Hauer ridge towards Innerbergalm. At the tip of this ridge lies the Wöckelwarte, from which you can let your gaze wander over Längenfeld. From there, it goes through an enchanting stone pine forest back to the lush alpine pastures and fields shortly before the Innerbergalm. The descent takes place, as does the ascent, via the trail back to Lehn.
Travel comfortably and safely by train. The final stop and exit point is ÖTZTAL station. Then you travel conveniently and quickly with public bus services or local taxi companies through the entire valley to your desired destination. The current bus timetable is available at: http://fahrplan.vvt.at
