    The Lac des Perches - Sternsee - is located at about 1,000 meters altitude in a glacier valley.
    The name is said to come from a boy who fell into the lake and drowned while trying to catch a shooting star.

      Beautifully located lake, not accessible by car and therefore not so crowded. Invites as a stopover on a strenuous hike to a refreshing swim (only for swimmers!), So definitely swimwear with you.

        The Seebach flows from the Lac des Perches down into the valley and flows into the La Dolar at Oberbrück 💦.

        An ideal dog drinking point after a descent to Lac des Perches or before a climb 🐕
