Austria: Belo jezero / Weißensee

With Nada we decided to spend the day mountain biking, geocaching and exploring new places. For our destination we chose the lake in Carinthia. Weißensee is the highest situated Carinthian bathing lake on 930 mAA and in summer the lake surface can reach 24 degrees Celsius.

Time for Geocaching

Farchtensee

 

The water itself is clean enough to drink 

Time to rest

Hiking trail, where it is forbidden to cycle. We had a special permit.

About two thirds of the lake's surface are part of a protected area.

With a visibility range of up to 20 metres, the lake is among the most stunning diving destinations in the Alps.

 

Nice track and plenty of wild mushrooms

 

Everywhere astonishing view

 

On our way back we took the upper road, approved for mountain biking
