Nature
The Wildmoossee

The Wildmoos area is a large aquatic ecotope of about 55 hectares (140 acres)[1] with two rarely appearing aperiodic lakes, the Lottensee and the Wildmoossee,[2] with a further 13-hectare (32-acre) bog and wetland area on the Wildalm.[3] The two areas are separated by forest. They are both karst phenomena.

Seefeld-Wildmoos Golf Course

The region has been developed today into an 18-hole golf course. The golf club is a member of the Leading Golf Courses Austria and has close links to the nearby 5-star hotel, the Interalpen Tyrol.
