Thiersee
A small lake in the valley west of Kufstein, with meadows and farmhouses around its shore, and a century-old Passion play theater in the village.
Thiersee lies in the village of Thiersee, about 6 km west of Kufstein. The lake is small, with a lakeside trail about 3 km long that is flat and easy to walk. In summer there are bathing areas and pedal boat rentals; in winter, when the lake freezes, you can stroll and enjoy the snowy scenery. In the village, the Passion Play theater has staged the Passion of Jesus, performed by local villagers, since 1799, once every six years. It is about 15 minutes' drive, with buses available. It suits a relaxed half day and can be combined with a walk to Stimmersee.
