Gänglesee, Mountain lake in Liechtenstein
The Gänglesee lake sits at an elevation of 1301 meters in the Liechtenstein Alps, surrounded by mountain peaks and natural vegetation.
The construction of a paved road in 1867 near Gänglesee transformed the accessibility of the Samina Valley, replacing the previous narrow mule tracks.
Local fishing clubs maintain the lake's resources and provide day permits for visitors who wish to practice fishing in the surrounding waters.
The lake features multiple barbecue stations and picnic areas along its shores, with access to swimming spots during summer months.
The Valünerbach river flows through Gänglesee, creating a natural water system that feeds into the Steg reservoir's mud collection system.
