Truly Diverse

Wildsee Lake in Winter

The Wildsee – also known as Seefeld Lake – is a tranquil lake that reveals its quiet, magical side in winter. Surrounded by snow-covered walking paths and a scenic winter landscape, it lies embedded in the impressive alpine backdrop of the Region Seefeld – Tirols Hochplateau. Located right next to the pedestrian zone and close to the train station, the lake is a perfect starting point for gentle winter walks. Well-cleared paths invite you to soak up the stillness – ideal for switching off, breathing deeply, and simply enjoying the view.
