The three-lobed lake, surrounded by moor areas, is located in a nature reserve established in 1939 in the ice crumbling landscape of the earlier Inn and Chiemsee glaciers of the Würm Glaciation north of the Schlosssee that drains to it, and southwest of the Hartsee, into which it drains. There are only shallow connections between the three lake basins that are silting up more and more.
