The Ammersee

Bavaria's third-largest lake, nestled in the Fünfseenland region west of Munich — a sailing haven with views of the Alps on clear days.

Lake Ammersee is located in the Fünfseenland region southwest of Munich and is Bavaria's third-largest lake after Lake Chiemsee and Lake Starnberger See. It was formed as a glacial tongue basin lake during the Ice Age; it is fed by the Ammer river, which leaves it again as the Amper. The shores are partly forested and partly lined with meadows and small towns such as Herrsching, and the monastery Kloster Andechs sits above the western shore. On clear days, views across the water extend to the Alps, and the lake is a popular sailing and swimming destination.
