I always very much enjoy coming to those lakes. They are surrounded by mountains and are simply a beautiful sight in general. There is an easy trail that leads around both lakes (~7km) but you can also just walk around the first lake as well (~3km). The parking space is also a starting point for many beautiful and great hikes and for me personally it's a great place to do a hike and then return back to the lake to take a swim and cool myself off a bit. Also just for swimming I very much like it here. The water quality is great and the temperature is quite refreshing though not too cold; at least for my taste. I can definitely recommend to come there.

When staying in the area, a visit to the wildpark is a must for families, children - but also nature lovers! A very large, beautifully designed wildpark. Most animals have large spaces to be kept appropriately. The places are also adapted to the living conditions of the animals. Due to the size and variety of animals, I recommend planning half a day. There are deer, elk, ibex, raccoons, beavers ... Some animals, like the lynx, are difficult to spot in their enclosures. It takes time for that. But the animals feel more comfortable than in the zoo. You can feed different animals. You can buy the food at the entrance at the cash register. It's worth it and there are nice photos. The food for the fish must be purchased separately. You can buy this from vending machines at the respective ponds. In the end there is a small petting zoo for the little ones. A great wildpark that is definitely worth it for families! And admission - affordable. Can be combined well with the Almsee.

The strangely named Dr. Vogelgesang-Klamm is well worth a visit. Very very beautiful - with fresh water from the mountain thundering past as you climb the gorge. Breathtaking scenary. Unfortunately we only had time for the first part of the hike - around a hour and half - total time recommended for the entire hike is around 5 hours. Would love to go back.
