The Sankenbachsee is a former karst lake southwest of Baiersbronn in the Black Forest. It silted up around 3,000 years ago and could be artificially dammed up again because it lies below the Sankenbach waterfalls and is flowed through by the Sankenbach. In the 1980s, a low barrage was built at the outflow of the Sankenbach to protect the lake from silting up.

Beautifully situated lake in the middle of the forest. Also suitable for bathing if you are not a Frostie☃️! 🌝
