Rustically Beautiful ...
...the Walchensee

The unique mountain landscape and the wonderfully clear water of Germany's largest mountain lake (16.4 sq km) are untouched pure nature! One of the few lakes in the Bavarian Alps with almost entirely undeveloped and freely accessible shores.

The Walchensee lies at the wooded mountains of the famous Herzogstand. The Heimgarten group, the Ester Mountains, and the Benediktenwand frame the over 192m deep Walchensee.

This place invites you to all kinds of activities on and around the lake! Enjoy fishing and the rich fish stock, diving in the crystal-clear water, extensive hikes in impressive mountain scenery, a romantic rowboat ride across the lake – everything is possible!

The natural beaches, especially in the south and east, are a must for all bathing enthusiasts! Simply enjoy the peace and the magnificent landscape in one of the numerous bays of Lake Walchensee.
