The Schmachter See is a lake near Binz on Rügen and part of the Schmachter See and Fangerien nature reserve. The Park of the Senses meanders along the reed-lined banks of Lake Schmachter.Only about 700 meters from Binz's Baltic Sea beach, the Schmachter See awaits visitors in the west of the Baltic Sea resort. This dreamy, reed-lined inland lake is around 135 hectares in size and welcomes you with its very own, quiet atmosphere. The promenade at Schmachter See is a popular meeting place, especially in the evening, to experience the sunset. A signposted hiking trail leads extensively around the lake. By April 2003, the bank area in Binz was expanded and the Park of the Senses was created. The Schmachter Lake area was created towards the end of the Ice Age, when there was a glacier tongue here. The valley developed into a lake, later into a bay in the Baltic Sea. 5,000 years ago, the lake basin was sealed off from the Baltic Sea by the “Schmalen Heide” spit. What remained was a trickle that drained the lowland area of the Schmachter See into the Baltic Sea. The southern part of the lake became increasingly silted up. A beech forest on the northwest bank of the lake is called Fangerien.auf-nach-mv.de/reiseziel/a-schmachter-see
