Lake Walchensee
Spring has sprung and we’re dreaming of the enchanting escapes that await us in the months to come. Walchensee—one of Germany’s largest and deepest Alpine lakes—has much to offer. Nestled at the panoramic foothills of the Bavarian Alps, this turquoise-green basin boasts visibility of up to 10 metres. Set out uphill to take in the best views of the lake coupled with fresh mountain air and blossoming flowers. Next to Chiemsee, Tegernsee or Ammersee, this lake is no longer an insider tip. Nevertheless, we have found beautiful sunbathing lawns and bathing spots that are worth going to. We recommend heading up Jochberg (ca. 3.5 hours) or Herzogstand (ca. 4 hours). The latter’s peak is also easily accessible via the mountain railway.
With diving, sailing, fishing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing all on the agenda, Walchensee is especially appealing to active holiday-goers. Though the lake’s temperature rarely crosses the 22-degree mark, come summer, it’ll be hard to resist submerging yourself fully in its glistening waters.
