Historical Description

Like many other pre-alpine lakes, the Chiemsee was created at the end of the Würm glacial period around 10,000 years ago as a glacier excavation. The largest tributary of the lake is the Tiroler Achen in the southeast, the only outflow is the Alz in the north. Like the Prien and other smaller tributaries, it washes sand and debris into the lake so that it slowly silts up. The landscape around the Chiemsee, the Chiemgau, is one of the most popular recreational areas in Bavaria. The scenic charm of the Chiemsee results from the close proximity of the Chiemgau mountains (Hochfelln, Hochgern, Hochplatte and Kampenwand).
