Große Wünnow is a lake in the Mecklenburgische Seenplatte district in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. At an elevation of 62.1 m, its surface area is 0.28 km2. The Große Wünnow is a tributary of the Müritz near Röbel/Müritz in the Mecklenburg Lake District in Meklenburg, Western Pomerania. It is the continuation of Röbler inland lake of the Müritz, but bends from it at a right angle to the east. It has a size of around 28 hectares and lies at 62.1 m above sea level. The maximum extent of the lake is 1200 meters by 1200 meters by 360 meters. The Sülwerhop swamp area, which protrudes from the north into the Große Wünnow, divides the lake into two sections of unequal size, which are connected by a passage that is only around 30 meters wide. The remaining banks are occupied by fields and meadows, whose drainage ditches are the only tributaries.

There are a large number of boathouses on the south bank. the Müritz cycle path leads directly along the bank.
