the wild from lake wildensee

after visiting the karwendel (2385m), the leutascher canyon (wetterstein massif?) and the city of mittenwald, we have moved to the other side of the city ~ the hoher kranzberg (1391m) area for easy hiking and late october swimming in ice cold lake wildensee in the wallgau area of the bavarian alps😄

chilling monster of lake wildensee ~ ein wilder im wildensee?

folks, i'm writing today just to let you know NOT to visit the lake germeringer see, if you don't have to ... we have much much nicer + more clean lakes in the neighborhood. 

lake germeringer see

swimming 🏊+ bathing 🛀 + sunbathing 🌞+ soccer 🌐

me, the soccer amateur. well, better than just to watch the european

 or world championship on TV, isn't it?

the unknown small guy was a better player than me 😀

winter time walk around the frozen lake germeringer see, february 7th, 2026 ... it is so small, we've walked twice😉

ice vs. water aka winter time ⛄vs. summer time 🌞

well, if you want to go by bike / roller blades and be fast at any lake, so just do ... but remember, i have warned ya, didn't i? well, you want to see few pictures made by new pocket camera before you decide whether to visit germering or not? i'm not sure i understood the camera setting yet, i have just got it few days ago as a birthday gift, you know? but remember, there are nicer lakes and better photograhers out there ... of course, if you like algae, duck shit, barbecue smell and the like, so you are right in munich's mattress city / satellite germering and its lake 😃

what about this lakes + sites:
