Of the lakes for bathing in and around Füssen, the fourth largest lake in Bavaria – Lake Forggen – is ranked first. You can enjoy the superb nature on many beautiful located bathing places. Of course, the lake also offers numerous water sports possibilities. It is also popular among hikers and cyclists, who can find the perfect paths along its riverside.
