The lake is approximately 2.3 kilometers long and 750 meters wide. It is divided by a narrowing in the middle into a wide, strongly articulated south basin and a narrow, elongated north basin. The height of the lake is 30.9 m above sea level. NHN . In the lake is the approximately 2.5 hectare island of Fischwerder . The maximum depth of 9.5 meters is in the northern basin.

The Lankower See is a meso-eutrophic body of water with steep slopes in a ground moraine area of the Pomeranian maximum advance of the Vistula Ice Age . The elongated shape and depth of the northeast basin are features of a former meltwater channel . The southern part, on the other hand, lies in a depression that formed after the thawing of dead ice .
In the catchment area of the lake, large areas of forest were cleared in the 15th and 16th centuries, which were then used for agriculture. The lake was located in the border area of the GDR between 1949 and 1989 and was only accessible to the border troops of the GDR . Lankow, which was first mentioned in 1209 and was demolished in 1976 after forced resettlement and vacancy, was on the east bank. From 1976 to 1990 the waters were criss-crossed by border security systems.
The southern basin of the lake, including the adjacent bank areas on the Mecklenburg side, was placed under nature protection on May 15, 1990. In 1994, the state of Schleswig-Holstein designated the nature reserve Lankower Seeufer, Grammsee and the surrounding area to the southwest of the lake .
The Lankower See is managed by a professional fisherman and may be fished and fished in the northern part, as this part is outside the nature reserve.
