The Untersee, with an area of around 62 km², is the smaller of the two lakes of Lake Constance. Of this, 47 km² belong to Germany (Baden-Württemberg), and the remaining 13 km² to the Swiss cantons of Thurgau and Schaffhausen. There are three interconnected lake sections: Gnadensee with its Markelfinger Winkel in the northwest, Zeller See in the west (all in Germany), and Rheinsee in the south (in Germany and Switzerland). Its main inflow is the Seerhein and its only outflow is the Hochrhein. Source: Wikipedia
