Regarding parking at Offensee, there&#8217;s usually no problem finding a spot outside the main summer season. During the summer season, we recommend arriving early enough, especially on weekends with nice weather, when the lake is a popular destination. Overnight parking with caravans at Offensee is prohibited. There are about 250 parking spaces available.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_803\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-803\" class=\"size-full wp-image-803\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3864-2.jpg\" alt=\"Parking at Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"659\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3864-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3864-2-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3864-2-265x174.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-803\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Parking at Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_794\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-794\" class=\"size-full wp-image-794\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3671-2.jpg\" alt=\"Lake Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3671-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3671-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-794\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Restaurant &#8211; kiosk at the beach \/ Lake Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_791\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-791\" class=\"size-full wp-image-791\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3709-2.jpg\" alt=\"Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3709-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3709-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-791\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lake Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lake_Offensee\"><\/span>Lake Offensee<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Lake Offensee is a popular natural swimming spot in the Traunsee region. There&#8217;s no entry fee for the beaches, and public toilets are available. The lake is ideal for swimming, even for families with children, as the shoreline at the main beach slopes gradually. Offensee is about 900 m long and wide. You can look forward to crystal clear water and shades of blue and emerald.<\/p>\n<p>It takes about half an hour to walk from the parking lot to the main beach, where you&#8217;ll find a large green meadow and a kiosk with seating and refreshments. Those who prefer privacy can also find several smaller coves here.<\/p>\n<p>Note: Paddleboards have been banned since this year!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_802\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-802\" class=\"size-full wp-image-802\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3539-2.jpg\" alt=\"Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3539-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3539-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-802\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_800\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-800\" class=\"size-full wp-image-800\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3601-2-2.jpg\" alt=\"Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3601-2-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3601-2-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-800\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_801\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-801\" class=\"size-full wp-image-801\" src=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3555-2.jpg\" alt=\"Offensee\" width=\"1000\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3555-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/rakouskajezera.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_3555-2-768x522.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-801\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Offensee \/ photo: Austrian Lakes<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Besides swimming, Lake Offensee is also a popular spot for circular walks around the entire lake. The whole trail is about 5 kilometers of easy walking, which you can comfortably complete in about 1-2 hours depending on your pace and the places where you stop. Along the trail, you&#8217;ll find many benches for resting, and you can also admire carved hearts in tree stumps and other features.<\/p>\n<p>The trail is clearly marked and mostly consists of a paved path. However, it&#8217;s only partially accessible for wheelchairs and strollers. There are places where assistance or carrying a stroller is necessary.
