Lake Faulensee, located above Rieden am Forggensee, is a small moorland lake surrounded by forest and meadows. The natural experience is magnificent. A vast network of hiking and biking trails in the immediate vicinity makes Lake Faulensee an ideal destination. Just a stone's throw from Rieden and Hopfen, it's perfect for a short stroll. But even multi-hour hikes through the diverse landscape can include Lake Faulensee as a destination or stopover. Lake Faulensee can only be reached on foot, by bike, or on horseback.

From the lakeside path overlooking the crystal-clear Weissensee, cyclists and nature enthusiasts are treated to breathtaking views of a picture-perfect landscape. Surrounded by dense forests and majestic mountains, the lake exudes a quiet, almost otherworldly tranquility. The paths around the lake not only offer ideal conditions for sporty tours, but also numerous panoramic points where you can pause and gaze over the sparkling water – an unforgettable nature experience for all the senses.
