The small Schlüchtsee invites you to swim. A kiosk ensures the supply of food and drinkable. It is also worth a short hike on beautifully landscaped paths. Large, free parking.

A beautiful, somewhat remote lake. There is not so much going on here, you can go hiking and swimming.

Very friendly reception, nice location. Closed on Tuesday, but you can have dinner 700 m away in the Dachsberger Hof (closed on the website, by mistake, also noted for Tuesday, Aug. 22).

Very nice little bathing lake. If the Schluchsee is sometimes too crowded in the high season, you can switch to the Schlüchtsee, sometimes the sunbathing area at the kiosk can also be full here, the lake is particularly popular with locals. At the lake there is everything you need for a successful summer day: bathing lake, changing rooms, sunbathing area, kiosk, etc. You can walk around the lake, and the immediate vicinity of the lake is ideal for short hikes or walks.

Alone because of the newly renovated, nostalgic changing rooms, strictly separated for men and women, it is worth visiting the bathing lake.
