When you come to the Egetjoch and the second lake, practically all the ascent is behind you; from here, the route leads down into the valley and past the third, fourth and fifth lakes. Some are bigger, some are smaller, but all are distinctive in their features. After a good long hike onwards, you will come to lake number six, the Trüber Lake; Instantly recognisable for its vibrant, shimmering colours, this is the perfect spot to enjoy a pleasant rest on the bank; you’ll feel the soothing, calming effect of the mountain lake on your spirits and weary limbs instantly.
Most hikers descend once more after lake six. To get to lake seven, the Pfurn Lake, you need to plan in two more hours and your legs will clock up a few more metres of ascent. The effort is undeniable but then again, so is the reward.
