Pindar Square on Alpsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful mountain lake near the royal castles Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein, which offers a great motive for hikers due to its clarity and the associated turquoise coloring.

South Shore of the Alpsee

Highlight • Lake

It is impressive when you can see the two castles from the lower end of the lake when the visibility is good.
Dog owners should remember that there are gratings at the lower end of the lake to overflow and they cannot be bypassed, so the dog should be able to or he must be carried.
