Lake Murner See is a lignite mining lake that was flooded in the 1980s and is part of the Upper Palatinate lake district. Thanks to its clear waters, it is very popular with divers, stand-up paddleboarders, swimmers, and others. The family highlight at Lake Murner See is the fantastic Water-Fish-Nature adventure park. Yet it still exudes tranquility.
