The Egglburger See is the largest lake in the Ebersberg district in Upper Bavaria .
location
The Egglburger See is 33 hectares and is located on the west side of the district town of Ebersberg directly (360 meters away) on the southern edge of the Ebersberg Forest , especially the Eglhartinger Forest . The lake is 1,100 meters long from northwest to southeast, up to 410 meters wide, and lies at an altitude of 553.0 meters.
According to monastic records, an abbot Altmann had the Ebrach dammed around 1040 and thus created Lake Egglburg.
The hamlets of Hinteregglburg and Egglsee and the Ziegelhof farmstead are on the shores of the lake . South of the lake there is a moss ( moor and meadows ), where the Moosbach begins as the largest tributary. The river Ebrach represents the outflow of the Egglburger See in the southeast. The Egglburger See stands at the beginning of a chain of small ponds and lakes along the Ebrach.
As the lake is located in a nature reserve, swimming is only allowed after August 1st. Due to the shallow depth of only about two meters and the large amount of mud and reeds, it is not very suitable as a bathing lake - on the other hand, it is an important breeding and resting place for z. T. rare birds. In recent years it has lost its importance as a nationally important breeding ground for black-headed gulls , mainly because of the increasing siltation; the black-headed gull colony there was at times one of the largest in Bavaria.
