Greifensee is a small lake 20 km to the northeast of Lake Zurich and the city of Zurich. It lies approximately at co-ordinates 47°21′N 8°41′E. As the second largest lake in the Canton of Zurich (Lake Zurich being the largest), it is about 6 km long and 1.6 km at the widest point, for a maximum depth of 32 m. The Aabach is the main supplying river. A ship connects small towns lining the water, Maur, Nieder-Uster, Fällanden, Mönchaltorf and the town Greifensee. It is the scene of the Greifensee-Lauf, a semi-marathon around the lake held every year.
