La Petite Maison du Lac – Höglwörth Lake Bath

Highlight • Beach

Although the Berchtesgadener Land is a biosphere reserve and the area around Lake Höglwörth is a landscape conservation area, bathing and swimming in the lake is permitted at two designated spots. The lakeside bathing area dates back to a time long before the conservation area was declared. It is the larger of the two bathing spots and is located on the northern shore of the lake, with a lawn and a small jetty. The Lakeside Café is also located here.

Cascade waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Schornbach and Höglwörther Seebach streams, both of which rise in the hills west of the A8 motorway, merge in a pond above Lake Höglwörth. From there, the lake's largest tributary cascades through the forest, plunging more than 30 meters down the slope to the west of the lake, via numerous stone cascades.

Site of the Former Hydroelectric Power Plant

Highlight • Monument

A small power plant was built on this site around 1925, supplying electricity to the monastery and two farms. It was powered by water from the Schornbach and Höglwörther Seebach streams, which were dammed for this purpose in a pond high on the slope. Later, the hydropower was augmented by a diesel engine. Operations ceased in the summer of 1962. The pipeline can still be seen here today.

West shore of Lake Höglwörth

Highlight • Lake

A very beautiful, idyllic little lake. A walk around the lake takes only 35 minutes and is highly recommended. You'll always see the monastery from a different perspective.

Swimming spot on the south shore of Höglwörth Lake

Highlight • Lake

Although the Berchtesgadener Land is a biosphere reserve and the area around Lake Höglwörth is a landscape conservation area, bathing and swimming in the lake is permitted at two designated spots. Opposite the larger bathing area on the northern shore of the lake, there is a small beach with lake access here in the south.
