The Waginger See is a lake in the eastern district of Traunstein in the Rupertiwinkel , which is connected to the Tachinger See . It is 6.6 km long and up to 1.8 km wide. It is embedded in a hilly landscape that is covered with fields and meadows. The Waginger See together with the Tachinger See form the community-free area Waginger See in the district of Traunstein. The municipalities of Waging am See in the west and northeast, Taching am See in the north, Kirchanschöring in the east and Petting in the south border the banks of the Waginger See . The lake is owned by the Free State of Bavaria, for whose administration the Bavarian Administration of State Palaces, Gardens and Lakes is responsible.
description
The Waginger See is only separated from the Tachinger See in the north by a constriction bridged at Tettenhausen. This bottleneck is formed by a peninsula that extends from the west into the lake and is marked on old maps as Auerzipfel (after the nearby Einödhof Au and formerly Auerbauer ). It was narrowed in the 19th century by lowering the lake (by relocating and lowering the drain) and backfilling from the east (from around 155 to 20 meters) so that a bridge could be built. The district road TS 26 runs over the bridge, which is also the main road of the municipality of Waging, which is locally called Hauptstraße from the east bank (district Tettenhausen). On Philipp Apian's land board from 1568, the Tahensee (there designation for the Tachinger See and the Waginger See) is drawn in without a distinctive constriction.
With water temperatures of 27 ° C in summer, the Waginger See is the warmest lake in Upper Bavaria. Because of the separation at the bottleneck, the Waginger See and Tachinger See lakes differ in terms of their average temperature and pH value .
The lake still freezes over in severe winters. This was the case almost every year until the 1960s. The Waginger See freezes over a few days later than the Tachinger See because of the higher average temperature and probably also because of the larger currents. Only in long-lasting and extremely severe winter high weather conditions does this take place over the entire width (between Kühnhausen and Gaden) with a load-bearing ice thickness.
The lake is fed by several streams. The largest are the Schinderbach and the Höllenbach . These tributaries, like the Zintenbach , Ötzbach and Wiener Graben, are in the west. In the east only the Laubenbach is to be mentioned. In addition, there is an inflow through the narrow point from the Tachinger See, which in turn feeds a number of streams.
Like many lakes on the edge of the Alps, glaciers from the last Ice Age shaped the landscape so that Waginger and Tachinger See could arise. Of a formerly extensive lake district the near vicinity, the water level by about 20 meters higher than today was, besides the Abtsdorfer See , the slowly silted Weitsee and the silted already in historical times Schönramer felt , both south of Petting located in Rupertiwinkel only the Tachinger See and Waginger See remained.
Surname
The lake got its name from today's climatic health resort Waging am See. At the time the name was given, the name “am See” was justified for the place Waging, but today it is to be regarded as historical and geographically misleading: In 1867 the outflow of the lake that flows from the southern end of the lake at Petting and at Tittmoning into the Salzach draining Götzinger Achen , lowered in order to gain land so that the lake level sank by two meters. As a result, all places except Tettenhausen, which is located on the eastern steep slope at the narrow point between the two lakes, are clearly set back from the lake shore on the surrounding mostly gently rising slopes.
Fish fauna
Due to the rapid warming of the lake, the productivity of the fish population is very high, especially pike , carp , pikeperch and eel can reach high weights. Since the flowing streams do not carry cold and oxygen-rich water, salmonids such as brown trout and brook trout hardly occur in the Waginger See. Large pike in Waginger See are not very faithful to their location, as they have specialized in hunting swarms of whitefish in open water . In addition to many small stature perch whose stocks sharply stunted are, occur white fish such as bream , chub , roach and rudd on masse. In the numerous lily fields and overgrown sections of the shore region also come tench ago, which are mainly active at dawn and dusk and go in search of food. The professional fisherman and owner of Waginger Seefischerei Robert Kneidl himself supplied Pope John Paul II with carp for New Year's Eve .
Sea fluctuations
In 1905, Anton Endrös examined the sea fluctuations in the Waginger See and Tachinger See. He found over 10 oscillations of different duration . The largest fluctuation was 75 mm, with twice the amplitude mostly remaining below 18 mm. The longest uninodal longitudinal oscillation extends over both lakes and has an average duration of 62 minutes, with the knot lying between the two lake constrictions. The Waginger See showed its own uninodal longitudinal oscillation of approx. 17 minutes of average duration and a binodal oscillation of approx. 12 minutes. Multi-nodal vibrations were also found, all of them under 10 minutes.
