    The Feldsee is a must-see that you should definitely plan for – not only because of its fascinating nature and its history, but also because of the breathtaking surroundings in the raised moor. :)

      The Feldsee is the highest lake in Germany outside the Alps.

      The approximately 97,500 m² large and up to 32 m deep Karsee was created by glaciers from the last ice ages.

      It is bordered on three sides by steep walls up to 300 m high. It is almost circular, with a diameter between 350 and 370 meters.

      The elevation, which is open to the northeast at 1,100 m and which allowed larger amounts of snow to accumulate and maintain, was the cause of the armchair-like shape of the terrain with the steep back wall, the flat floor and the moraine wall in front.

        The Feldsee is located east of the Feldberg and has a depth of 32 m. From three sides it is bordered by up to 300 m high stone walls and is located at 1100 m above sea level. NN. Here at the Feldsee you can rest wonderfully before you climb the Feldberg. For the natural paradise surrounded by Bannwald with its black ink color, the dark coniferous woodland and the rugged rocky slopes invites you to linger.
