The hilly landscape of Holstein Switzerland was formed when melting ice left behind masses of rock, causing water to collect in the depressions. This is how the Great Plön Lake, one of many bodies of water in the Holstein Switzerland Nature Park, was formed. Numerous animal species call this area home; with a bit of luck, you might spot kingfishers, otters, or even a white-tailed eagle. In addition to the diverse natural landscape, Holstein Switzerland also offers cultural highlights such as castles, manor houses, and estates.

The Stocksee, located east of the town of the same name, extends into the districts of Segeberg and Plön. It is approximately 200 hectares in size and has a maximum depth of 30.2 m.

The lake today fills a deeply incised glacier tongue basin from the Weichselian Ice Age. This was created by the advance of various glaciers, which pushed large basins out of the soft ground and deposited the material at the sides. As a result of this formation, the banks of the lake are relatively steep and the reed belts on the lake shores are relatively narrow. There are three islands in the lake (Großrethberg, Kleine Insel and Lange Insel) and a peninsula, on which, as in the shore zone, there are mainly alder swamp forests. In higher areas, these wet forests turn into extensively used beech forests.
