    A picturesque lake and a fantastic view of the castle and all this without the tourist crowds with which one has to accept shortly thereafter.

    Swimming in the early morning is a dream. In the middle of the lake you have a nice view of the castles. I'm there every morning at 7 o'clock when it's not raining.

    The approximately 0.2 square kilometer Schwansee reaches seven meters at its deepest point. Since 1956 it has been part of the landscape protection area "Alpsee, Schwansee and Faulenbacher Tal". Its location in the middle of the former park of Hohenschwangau Castle, with the surrounding mountain ranges of the Schwarzenberg and Kienberg, makes the lake particularly attractive. The completely natural shore can be circled in a two-kilometer hike. To the east there are breathtaking views of the Hohenschwangau Castle, which is also reflected in the water of the lake, and of Neuschwanstein Castle.
