Alatsee North Shore

Numerous myths surround this lake. It's fun to read something before you visit it

Legends and rumors about the lake:
There are many legends and riddles from days long past. On the one hand, this rumor about sunken treasures and gold persists. Locals from that time tell of large motorcades of the Wehrmacht, which drove up to the Alatsee to flee from the Allies. During World War II, Lake Alatsee was a restricted military area. On the other hand, there should be a narrow hole in the middle of the lake, where the lake widens again like an hourglass. Old legends report that the Alatsee is immeasurably deep and harbors a monster. Another legend tells of three enchanted women trying to lure men (knights) into the depths of the lake in order to be redeemed. Even today, it is said that on some nights voices are heard calling for help. Above the Alatsee there is said to be a force field that stretches in an energy path from the Alatsee to a triangular meadow.

Crystal clear water, benches to relax, lawn for sunbathing. My favorite lake in the Eastern Allgäu.
