Like several other smaller lakes, the Priestersee belongs to the Schaalsee, which is one of the deepest German lakes. During the division of Germany, large parts of the area lay in a kind of slumber for almost 40 years, so that nature had room to develop. That's why this area is so beautiful and so worthy of protection that it was declared a Biosphere Reserve in 2000. Anyway, you can not jump into a lake much more idyllic.

I think it's very good that there are still such beautiful free bathing places today.
If you want, you can cool off here in between on your tour.
