The Pilsensee is a lake in the Fünfseenland in Upper Bavaria . It has a maximum depth of 17 meters, a length of approx. 2.5 km and a width of approx. 1 km. In the ice age he was Exaration a branch pelvis through the Isar-Loisach glacier. After the glacier melted, it initially formed a common lake area with the Ammersee .
Already in the Würm Late Glacial the separation of the then still connected lakes began. When the Kienbach flood fan, on which Herrsching lies, was poured in, the connection narrowed, creating a lake of its own. The former connection silted up and so the southwestern Herrschinger Moos was created . Ammersee and Pilsensee are now completely separated from each other. The water level of the Pilsensee is about 1.2 meters above that of the Ammersee; it drains in a south-westerly direction through the Fischbach into the Ammersee.
Places on the lake shore are Seefeld , Hechendorf and Widdersberg . The Pilsensee has a total of 36 inflows and outflows with a catchment area of 56 km²; these tributaries ensure an annual exchange of the entire amount of water.
Above the Pilsensee is Seefeld Castle , where the Counts of Toerring lived, who ruled the area for centuries.
