King's Lake in Germany

⛱️Must-visit attraction: King's Lake King's Lake is the deepest lake in Germany and one of the most beautiful. The lake was formed during the last glacial period by glacial erosion, giving it a long and narrow shape reminiscent of Nordic fjords. The lake is completely surrounded by the Alps. It is said that the name of King's Lake comes from the surrounding mountains: one resembles a king, another a queen, and the small hills in between are their children, with a distant peak resembling a lying witch. 🌄Travel tips: The best way to explore King's Lake is by boat or rowing, as it is a very narrow lake, 7.7 kilometers long and about 1.7 kilometers at its widest point, with a shoreline of 19.96 kilometers, nestled among towering mountains. There seems to be a hiking route, but unless you stay in the area, it is not possible to walk around the lake. 🏨Accommodation tips: There are not many accommodations by King's Lake, so you can stay in a small town a few kilometers away. 💗Other tips: Stop at the St. Bartholoma pier midway, where there is a small red-roofed church, the St. Bartholomew's Chapel. It is like a postcard, and most people get off the boat here.
