The Esbacher See is a former clay pit and with over 40 meters water depth one of the deepest waters of northern Bavaria. The lake is a landscape protected by regulation. It is forbidden to leave the public paths and therefore also to swim.

Idyllic and overgrown quarry lake, with a gravel path and a footpath around it.

Former clay pit of the Esbach brick factory. Developed by clay mining in the opencast mine between 1900 and 1970 and has been filled with surface water since then. In the 1980s there was still an island that sank under the rising water level in the 1990s. Bathing tolerates at your own risk. Very steep bank, very deep. Nowhere standing height. With a depth of 40m, according to Wikipedia, the deepest body of water in the area.
