Kratzmühlsee

Highlight • Lake

Bikers on the Altmühl Panoramaweg can cool off with a dip in the Kratzmühlsee. The bathing lake with about 2 km of shoreline, laid out in the 70s, invites you to sunbathe, swim and row. The recreation area is supplemented by a miniature golf course, the Technikmuseum "anno dazumal", an idyllic lakeside restaurant and the quaint Wirtshaus zur Kratzmühle.
The ideal place for a short or longer break.
