At the foot of Patscherkofel lies Lans, a small village. The MoSe Circuit passes Lanser See and the Lanser Moor nature reserve before reaching the Vogelhütte. Together with Lanser Alm, the Kneipp facility and Lans Golf Course, these places offer different highlights—from nature and exercise to local history. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Lans, you can use these themes to consider what you would like to focus on during your stay.

MoSe Circuit: distance, stops and how to get there

The easy MoSe Circuit is 4.9 kilometres long and runs through Lans. It starts and ends in Lans, Am Lansersee. Along the way, the route passes Lanser See, the Lanser Moor nature reserve and Lans Golf Course, before reaching the Vogelhütte. Having the same starting and finishing point makes it a circular route, while the named stops indicate the places that define its course. This makes it possible to understand the route not only by its length, but also by the sequence of specific places along it.

You can reach the MoSe Circuit by taking bus J to the “Romedihof” stop or tram line 6 to the “Lanser See” stop. Check public transport information again before travelling, as it may change.

Lanser See and protected waters

Lanser See is an alpine moor lake covering about 70,000 square metres, of which approximately 35,000 square metres is water. It is fed by groundwater and the nearby Seerosenweiher, which is a nature reserve and is also known as Lanser Moor. These details describe both the lake’s approximate size and one of its water sources. The MoSe Circuit also passes the Lanser Moor nature reserve.

Facilities at Lanser See include a children’s playground with a shallow children’s pool in the lake, a diving tower and the “Zauberinsel” in the middle of the lake. These visitor facilities may change over time, so check the current situation before your visit. This will help you take the lake’s specific facilities into account when planning, without confusing them with the landscape features of the circuit.

Local history and other points of interest

Lanser Alm has been a fixture for the people of Lans since the 19th century. This long-standing local connection adds a historical perspective on Lans to the information about the lake and circuit. If, alongside nature, you would also like to consider local history when choosing your destination, the alpine pasture is a specific point of interest.

The Lans Kneipp facility is at the southern end of Kochholzweg, in a narrow strip of woodland. Its location is defined by the path and the surrounding landscape. This distinguishes it from the description of the MoSe Circuit, whose starting and finishing point is at Lansersee.

Lans Golf Course and the landscape

Lans Golf Course is a 9-hole course on a sunny terrace near Innsbruck. It is set in a park-like landscape among coniferous, deciduous and fruit trees; its described surroundings include impressive natural scenery and a unique panorama. Here, the focus is on the course format and the tree-lined landscape. By contrast, Lanser See is characterised by its alpine moor lake and its surface area. If you are weighing up your travel interests, these different features offer specific points of reference: golf course and panorama on the one hand, lake and moorland on the other.
