Denser natural lake with an average depth of 13 meters. (Wikipedia) The lake occasionally turns reddish, which was already mentioned in the church chronicle from 1604 and interpreted as a bad omen. However, the explanation for this is more likely to be the large number of water fleas than the cause of the discoloration. Under certain environmental conditions, they changed their metabolic processes and produced an intense red dye that contributed to the discoloration of the lake. The legend of Lake Denser, on the other hand, sees the solution to the puzzle as less scientific. According to her, young boys who wanted to force happiness in love are to blame. At a church fair in Dens, three sea maidens rose from the water to take part in the merrymaking of the people. When they were ready to jump into the lake again “at midnight,” a muffled scream was heard. A young boy who wanted to hold her had “snatched” a glove from a girl. But she was not allowed to return to the moated castle without him. Despite a desperate search, she couldn't find the glove. So she jumped into the water without him. All you could hear was a dull hissing noise and a wailing noise. She had to lose her life. The waves of the lake turned blood red. Never again did the virgins come out to share in the joys and enjoyments of men. But even today, when there is great war distress on earth, you can still see the lake turning as red as blood... The legend can be read in full in the book “Around the Alheimer” (1982), among others.

With the Breitenbacher See, a fairly large area of water is available for water sports. Campers will find nice pitches here. The kiosk offers a wide selection from bratwurst to ice cream and cool drinks. Hikers and cyclists can explore the area around the lake.

Nice detour in winter too

The lake is the landmark and at the same time gives its name to the town of Eltmannsee and also serves as an extinguishing pond. It does not have a natural inflow, but gets its water from the surface, which has repeatedly led to problems with algae infestation as a result of the last hot summers. A nice place to take a break, which is often used because you are "up" here and the rest of the tour, no matter which direction you choose, leads down.

A really great spot that we visited for the second time - unfortunately it was CLOSED on this weather-wise very nice day. 🥲 The entire Arial is highly recommended as a rest stop. 🔝
