Maltschacher See is a lake of Carinthia, Austria, 5 kilometers south-east of Feldkirchen in Kärnten. In the west of the lake there is a swamp. The lakes outflow feeds the Strußnigteich, a breeding ground where carps are grown, four kilometers southeast of the Maltschacher See.[1]
Flora and fauna
The lake originally had a dense belt of reeds and aquatic plants. In 1975 the grass carp was introduced in the lake and destroyed both plants and reed belts. Since 1991, the grass carp is no longer observed. Fifteen fish species are living in the lake. The main species found are perch, bream, bleak, carp, tench and perch.[1]
Tourism
At the shore of the Maltschacher See is a campsite, a bungalow park and restaurants. In the vicinity are another campground and several guesthouses.
