Hohenwarte Lake, Reservoir in Ziegenrück, Germany.
The Hohenwarte Lake spans through a landscape of steep forested slopes and numerous bends, creating a fjord appearance in the Thuringian region.
The construction of Hohenwarte Lake transformed the Upper Saale region into a water management system that generates hydroelectric power for the surrounding areas.
The waterfront along Hohenwarte Lake connects multiple villages where visitors discover traditional German guesthouses and regional Thuringian specialties.
The reservoir features multiple entry points for water activities, with the Ludwigshütter weir near Ziegenrück serving as a primary access point for paddlers.
The lake contains the only car ferry in Thuringia, which crosses the water at Linkenmühle, where motorboat traffic increases significantly.
