The Brunnensee is located in the nature reserve of the Seeon Lakes .
The natural lake is part of the ice collapse landscape and was created from a block of dead ice that broke off the glacier . In contrast to the other lakes in the nature reserve, it is considered to be the most chemically and physically pristine ice age lake. It is fed exclusively by groundwater sources that emerge on its west bank and in groundwater funnels. This is why the lake also has the lowest water temperature by comparison, at below 20 ° C all year round.
The waters III. Order has mesotrophic water quality and in the Seeoner Bach an outflow towards Alz . The water level is 533.30 m above sea level. The 510 m long and 1.3 km wide lake has a circumference of 1.23 km and a surface of 5.90 hectares with a volume of 502,000 m³, an average depth of 8.50 m and a maximum depth of 18.60 m which makes it the deepest lake in the Seeon Lake District. Its catchment area is 1.30 km².
Flora and fauna
The Brunnensee is considered to be the best-studied lake in the nature reserve , especially limnologically . The Limnological Research Station Seeon of the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich operates a branch here in a small boathouse.
In its silted areas there are reed beds, bog areas and litter meadows, which are ecologically very species-rich, but therefore also very sensitive habitats.
