Schattensee

Krakau

A natural gem of a special kind is the Schattensee. It captivates with its untouched, calm, and above all, romantic surroundings. A walk around the lake allows one to enjoy the Krakow mountain landscape.

A particularly special highlight is the water disc shooting at Schattensee. The ball bouncing off the water's surface must hit the cardboard disc hanging above the water. The distance is 107 meters, and the center of the disc is 50 cm above the water surface. This unique experience is available for groups of 25 or more upon prior telephone registration from May to October. Upon request, individuals can also participate in a shooting event.

Inquiries regarding water disc shooting should be directed to:

A boat trip across the warm Shadow Lake is a popular and romantic leisure activity. Whereby you can not only enjoy the landscape, but also dare to jump into the pleasant water in good weather. Because Schattensee is widely known and loved for its warm and, above all, healthy moor water.

Tree calendar at the shadow lake Interesting in summer and winter!
During a walk around the Moorsee you will find a lovingly designed tree calendar, which will bring you closer to times long past. Of course, you are invited to seek out your very own tree of life and linger with it. Step by step you explore the meaning of your very personal life. Besides the botanical description you will find the meaning of the respective tree for the person who was born in its sign.
