Does anybody know what's up with the water level of Lungernersee right now? I went there on a spontaneous hike this afternoon, and was really surprised to see such low levels – I'd say upto 20-30 ft at some places. Is this typical for this time of the year? Or do they actually drain out the water as part of some distribution effort? Either way, it looks quite striking!

Maybe someone put off the plug of the lake?

Maybe they prepare for the incoming water from the mountains after the snow melts?

Normal. The water is used to generate electricity, and it will fill up when the snow in the mountain melts.
Fun fact, no so good if you do not know about this fact and use the lake to dump a body in it, [Leichen-Fund im Lungernsee – Schweiz aktuell – Play SRF](https://www.srf.ch/play/tv/schweiz-aktuell/video/leichen-fund-im-lungernsee?urn=urn:srf:video:54c77b15-2397-4759-9892-e9c11ef4e380)
Proximal: they opened the valves to make some electricity. Distal: datacenters probably

As you may know, r/SwitzerlandIsFake. This area is currently off-limits to the public. You shouldn’t have taken these pictures. We are remodelling this sector. Visit another time, bye.
Please note we not use ft here we use meters, please adapt your post!
Not the water level
We don’t use feet for measurement in Switzerland.
I was really thirsty mate, sorry
