The Wildsee , also called Wildseelodersee or Wildalpsee , is a mountain lake in the Kitzbühel Alps . It is nestled at an altitude of 1847 m between the Wildseeloder ( 2119 m ) in the west and the Henne ( 2078 m ) in the east in the municipality of Fieberbrunn . It has an area of 2.5 hectares and a maximum depth of around eleven meters.
geography
It is a typical Kar lake, the hollow of which was formed by a glacier in the last ice age. It gets its name from the Wildalpe below. The Wildseeloderhaus and a small chapel are located on its northern bank . Due to its idyllic location and relatively easy access, it is a popular hiking destination.
The Wildsee is drained by a small stream at the northern end, which disappears after a short distance in a sinkhole and reappears three kilometers further east in the Schreienden Brunnen in Hörndlinger Graben.
history
The lake once belonged to the Rott monastery , which in 1568 left it to the noble brothers Hanns and Carl Rosenberger as an inheritance , as it was worthless for the monastery and not fishable. In 1790 the Hofmarkschreiber Simon Millinger reported: “ The marked Wild Alp See holds 370 fathoms in outline (note: around 650 m) , in the lower part of the valley there are Er 42 Gwerschuch (note: around 13.3 m) , there are many in it but very small, free fish. "
There is a legend about the origin of the Wildsee, as it is reported in a similar form from many lakes in the Alpine region: Over time, the dairyman in the area fell into outrageous arrogance, for example bowling with loaves of bread and cheese. This activity was punished from heaven with lightning and thunder. When the storm was over, a lake was found in the place of the alpine huts in which the wicked had disappeared.
