Boats ply the Dameritzsee. Trips to the Muggelspree the Muggelsee and the Gosener Kanal depart from here. Anglers cast their lines into its waters. They hope to catch eel perch pike zander catfish. Other fish swim here too. You might even see bream roach rudd bleak or gudgeon. The Dameritzsee is more than just a pretty face. It’s a vital part of Berlin’s ecosystem.
