About 10 minutes we walk now along "Gosaulacke", which is 5 to 6 m deep. In hot summers Gosaulacke is very small and hidden behind trees, but after heavy rains this lake extends to Holzmeisteralm.
Now it is getting a little bit steeper. Passing a waterfall the small road is taking us higher. After the steepest part - looking down to the right, you can sometimes see and hear a waterfall - the gravel road is completely flatening. The Upper Lake is close. We are passing a bridge, but most time of the year the river that leaves the Upper Lake is dry.
Five minutes later we reach the Upper Lake, which is lying 1160 m above sealevel. It is 900 m long, 500 m wide and its depth is between 36 and 43 m, depending on the season.
Like mentioned before water is running out of the lake just when we have high water.
On the southern end of the lake there is an alp called Hintere Seealm where you can take a rest. In summer here you meet the cows. If it is very hot sometimes the cows are standing in the water to cool down.
