Höwenegg
Immendingen, Germany, Germany
Höwenegg is a striking volcanic crater lake and mountain at 830 meters elevation near Immendingen in Germany's Hegau region, Baden-Württemberg, renowned as a UNESCO Geopoint for its world-famous fossil discoveries. Formed 10 million years ago during Miocene volcanism separate from the Swabian Alb's typical features, the turquoise "Blue Eye" lake occupies a former basalt quarry mined until 1979, now a protected nature reserve teeming with rare plants and prehistoric animal skeletons like three-toed horses unearthed from ancient crater lake sediments. Hikers circle its shimmering waters via an easy family-friendly 6.5 km loop trail from free parking, offering panoramic views amid the Naturpark Obere Donau's dramatic geology.
