The only lake in Šumava that belongs to the Danube basin. According to legend, the valley in which Devil’s Lake lies was carved out by the devil himself. The glacial lake sits in Šumava National Park at an altitude of 1,030 m.
The circuit around the lake is easy and beautifully scenic. The clear glacial waters of the lake are crystal clear, and the views over the surrounding Šumava landscape are quite exceptional. Access is from the car park at Laka.
