Kofler lakes

Surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Rieserferner Group, these two small alpine lakes offer a peaceful and scenic destination for hikers.

From the village of Rein in Taufers (1,595 m) in the Tauferer Ahrntal Valley, follow the small road leading into the Knuttental valley for a short distance, then turn right toward the Ebnerhof farm. From there, continue briefly along a farm access road until you reach trail marker 8A, which branches off to the left.

Follow this old footpath through the forest, ascending steadily to the Lower Kofleralm (2,034 m), then continue through more woodland to reach the Upper Kofleralm (2,192 m). Just above the hut, leave the main trail and follow path 9A, which climbs moderately steeply across rocky grass slopes.

This final stretch leads up to the Kofler Lakes at elevations between 2,412 and 2,445 meters, where you'll be greeted by crystal-clear waters set against a stunning alpine backdrop.
