The Forggensee is with its 15.2 square kilometers the fifth largest lake in Bavaria and the largest reservoir in Germany. The bike path around the lake is fully developed and is one of the most traveled bike paths D.eutschlands, on a nice weekend you should choose another of the 1200 km bike paths in Ostallgäu. The lake is freely accessible all around, the entire bank area is state property.

The Forggensee is a reservoir fed by the Lech. The water in it is slowly drained in autumn and refilled in spring when the snow melts in the mountains, so that shipping can start again from June. The lake is in a fantastic location with a mountain backdrop and a view of Neuschwanstein Castle. A great bathing lake in summer
