Chiemsee

The Chiemsee is a natural lake in Bavaria, Germany, halfway between Salzburg, Austria, and Rosenheim, Germany. It is frequently referred to as the "Bayern Sea." This lake receives water from the Tiroler Achen, Prien, and River Alz rivers as well as the River Alz itself. Chiemsee, also known as the "Bavarian Sea," is the largest lake in Bavaria. It has an area of 80 square kilometers, a diameter of roughly 64 kilometers, and a maximum depth of 73.4 meters.

The lake's northern and southern coastlines are level, and its eastern and western shores are bordered by rolling hills. The fishing is highly controlled despite the pristine waters and healthy trout and carp populations. The Herreninsel, which served as a bishopric's seat from 1215 until 1805, is home to a Benedictine monastery and a Bavarian royal castle that was inspired by Versailles. On the Fraueninsel, there used to be a Benedictine convent. Steamers run on the lake. The lake features a lot of interesting settlements to explore, two gorgeous islands that may be reached by boat, and a lovely landscape with mountains to the south. Chiemsee is one of the most beautiful lakes in Germany.
