In Germany, this is a destination that’s stunning all year-round and there’s no ‘perfect’ time to go because each season transforms this landscape into something new and magical.

During the spring and summer months, the lake is a gorgeous turquoise and surrounded by lush greenery as far as the eye can see, well into the surrounding mountains. During the fall, the changing colours of the leaves bring this entire area to life, surrounding it with beautiful hues of orange, red, and yellow. During the winter, the mountains seem to be twice their actual size and the snow-covered terrain is reminiscent of the upcoming holidays as well as a winter wonderland, complete with a frozen lake – it’s truly like a scene out of Disney’s Frozen.

The idea for the dam was set in motion during the 1920’s as hydro-power plants were built in the upper river which led to an uneven balance of water flow during the dry season. In an effort to counteract this and restore balance, a reservoir was added, thus creating both the dam as well as the lake itself. The dam took nearly five years to built and was completed between the years 1954 and 1959. Luckily, the dam had a dual purpose – in 2005, it was responsible for keeping flooding to a minimum during the European floods.
