    Beautiful lake. Something for everyone, whether by bike, for jogging, to relax and swim or for a walk, it is always worthwhile to come here.

      The Rothsee is located around 28 km south of Nuremberg on the northern flank of the Franconian Alb, around two kilometers below the Allersberg market in the valley of the Kleine Roth, which flows to the southwest and which it fills over a length of 3.7 km. It only reaches its greatest width of 1.6 km shortly before the main dam; in the upper two thirds of its length the width remains less than 400 m.

      The Rothsee is a reservoir in the course of the Kleine Roth in the Bavarian district of Roth (Middle Franconia). The dam serves as a temporary storage facility for the Danube-Main bridge. The main dam is supplied with pumped water from Altmühl and Danube through the Main-Danube Canal and can release water into the Roth via the Kleine Roth as well as into the Schwarzach via the Main-Danube Canal. Both bodies of water flow into the Rednitz, which flows into the Regnitz.

        Around the two lakes is a beautiful hiking or bike path around.
