Surrounded by towering rock cliffs, the lake - emerald green and silent - is set in one of the most impressive landscapes in Germany. It is perhaps for this reason that so many visitors come to Königssee year after year. This narrow, fjord-like lake is 8 kms long (5 miles), up to 1 km wide (3/4 mile) and lies 602 meters (2,000ft) above sea level. With a maximum depth of 190 meters (650 ft), Lake Königssee retains its cold temperature even during the hottest time of the year.
Leave the noise and hectic pace on land behind you and glide across the smooth surface in one of Lake Königssee's electric boats. The union of water, mountains and sky touches the heart and soul. Magical, romantic, relaxing, interesting and even educational - the fleet of boats on Lake Königssee invites you to experience an unforgettable and magical evening, the "Königssee Serenade", with a brass band concert and a several-course dinner served at the historic inn located on the peninsula of St. Bartholomew. Here you will experience the fisherman's handiwork in a fish-themed gastronomical evening! Let yourself be transported into another enchanted world!
