You have two options for swimming: the official outdoor pool in See, or a bathing area with a meadow to the south. I highly recommend against taking the detour, as a large section is a narrow footpath or dirt track, and it's horrible when there's oncoming traffic.

Beautifully situated lake for swimming. You can also hike and cycle around the lake. It is very popular and busy.

Idyllic spot on the edge of Kempten. Unfortunately there was a lot of algae in the water, probably due to the high temperatures.

Well suited as a bathing lake. But not for small children!!! It is only a small piece of the lake separated from it and boggy/stony. Otherwise a good facility with everything you need. Even a diving board
