The Egelsee (formerly also called Ecksee) is a moor lake in Carinthia, Austria, and is 780 m above sea level. A. Height on the Millstätter See ridge. The small forest lake can be reached from Molzbichl and Rothenthurn, from the southern shore of Lake Millstatt or via the hiking trails on the Millstätter See ridge. The body of water, which is under nature protection, does not owe its name to the lack of leeches, but is derived from the original name "Ecksee".

Very idyllic lake. Theoretically you could swim (entrance via ladders), but the many tadpoles put us off.
