Pfaffensee (Cruising Area)

The Pfaffensee, a lake ringed by forest on Stuttgart's western edge, is a long-standing outdoor cruising area for men, documented across several cruising guides. Activity centres on the wooded trails around the water and tends to pick up in the warmer months and daylight hours. It is a public recreation area used by walkers and families too, so discretion is essential. Same-sex activity is legal in Germany; keep to secluded spots, respect other users of the park, and follow local regulations.
