The lake is roughly triangular in shape with its inflow from Albysjön in the southern corner, and its outflow to Kalvfjärden in the north-eastern corner. It is separated from Albysjön by the peninsula Rävnäset, a municipal nature reserve covering 27 ha.[3] It contains a wide range of rare species and is together with the nature and park surrounding Tyresö Palace one of the best locales for bats.[4] South-east of the lake is the residential area Solberga.

In summers, the lake is part of a popular walk for visitors attracted by the Tyresö Palace and its surroundings.[5] In winters, the lake is popular for ice fishing.[6]

There are 21 species of vascular plants by the lake which in itself contains 9-13 aquatic plants, a relatively high biodiversity within the lake system.[1] Common fishes include Perch, Pike, and Zander.[7]

Notwithstanding its eutrophication, the presence of Stoneworts in Fatburen indicates the waters have a relatively high visibility, which, considering it is the last lake in the lake system, is surprising.[4]

gollark: Like I said, the current 3D implementation is very easy because CSS has built-in support for 3D rotations for some odd reason.
gollark: It's annoying to explain, but it would be quite hard.
gollark: Not really, since I just won't.
gollark: What I'm saying is that while most of the game would stay the same, I would have to write a lot of annoying rendering code.
