    From the trail on the northern shore of the Schluchsee you have a great view of the glittering in the sun water. When it is calm, the surrounding spruces are reflected in the deep blue water.

      As perfectly as the Schluchsee fits into the landscape of the Upper Black Forest, you might think that it is a natural lake. The level of the original Schluchsee was approximately 30 meters below the level of today's lake. It only came into being in its current form through the construction of the dam, which was completed in 1932. Since then, Schluchsee has been the highest dam lake in Germany.

      The Schluchsee is also the upper basin of the Häuser pumped storage plant, which in turn is part of the Schluchsee plant group, a sequence of reservoirs between Hausen and Waldshut, which are connected by pumping stations.

        The Schluchsee is always worth a trip.
