              The Rießersee, or Rießer See, is an artificially created body of still water south of Garmisch at 785 m above sea level in the Wetterstein Mountains. The water supply is primarily provided by a hillside spring on the southeastern shore.[1] A 1 km circular path leads around the lake. There is a small swimming pool on the southeastern shore. The water quality is good, and all limit values are met.
