Böhmerweiher, Nature reserve lake in western Munich, Germany

The Böhmerweiher consists of two artificial lakes formed by gravel extraction, featuring a larger lake of 4.75 hectares and a smaller one of 1.5 hectares.

The lakes originated in the 1960s when the landowner Böhmer initiated wet dredging operations, later used by a concrete mixing company before becoming recreational areas.

The larger lake attracts fishing enthusiasts while the smaller lake developed into a protected biotope due to limited human interference and dense reed belts.

Neither lake offers sanitary facilities or food services, and visitors should note the absence of lifeguards and designated parking areas at these unmanaged waters.

The larger Böhmerweiher features an unusual island of 130 square meters and multiple bays, making it different from typical gravel extraction lakes.
