Ottenstein reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Ottenstein Reservoir is a popular recreational area in the Waldviertel region of Lower Austria. It is the uppermost of the three Kamp Reservoirs in the Waldviertel region of Lower Austria and was created in the 1950s. The lake has a surface area of 4.3 square meters. The lake is known for its fjord-like, branching arms, reminiscent of Scandinavian landscapes. It is surrounded by wooded shores, ideal for hiking and walking.

View of Lichtenfels Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view right at the tip of the peninsula is wonderful, but be careful not to slip into the water, you do need to be a bit sure-footed if you venture right to the front - then you can read the cross with the inscription "In memory of POLDI May 1985 SSC Ottenstein*.

22.04.2019 - A breakfast on the SonnenTerrasse and then a leisurely day trip in the extensive lake landscape, highly recommended. Also a boat rental and several swimming opportunities in the cool Ottensteiner reservoir is located here. Nearby you can also visit the power plant and castle Ottenstein, as well as the gardens of the project Ökokreis.
