Oeschinen Lake - German: Oeschinensee is a lake in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland, 4 kilometres east of Kandersteg in the Oeschinen valley. The lake was created by a giant landslide and is fed through a series of mountain creeks and drains underground. The water then resurfaces as the Oeschibach. Part of it is captured for electricity production and as water supply for Kandersteg.The lake is generally frozen during five months, from December to May. From time to time ice skating is possible on the ice and from January to March, ice fishing is popular. Bernese Oberland, Switzerland, Europe.
