Lakes around Kufstein and Kiefersfelden

The Haarsee is a silting lake or already a silting moor on the Maistaller Berg in Kufstein , around 100 meters from the Pfrillsee . A hiking trail from Pfrillsee to Längsee leads along the Haarsee.

The “Thierberg Lakes” (Pfrillsee, Längsee, Hechtsee, Egelsee) are tectonic phenomena, small collapse basins that may have been favored by cavities or other karst phenomena. However, the Inntal Glacier had cleared them in the last Ice Age, dug them out and dammed them up with moraine debris and meltwater sediments. The Haarsee is also likely to have originated in this way. The lake is no longer used today.
