It is 23.3 m above sea level, and its area is 5.115 (or 5.14) km², its depth nearly 50 m. It is the largest and deepest natural lake in Saxony-Anhalt. It lies over the top of a salt dome and was developed by caving in. Hydrologically, the lake is more or less isolated with only a small artificial outflow connecting with the Elbe river via the river Jeetzel. The water body (0.147 bill. m³) only changes every 100 years. The town Arendsee and the municipality Schrampe are situated on its shores.
