The Middle Knöpfel Ponds
Highlight • Lake
After the ascent through the dragon gorge to the high sun one is at this way point almost again in the valley. There is a nice rest area waiting here.

As a non-native, I always wondered where the pond got its name from. I found what I was looking for: maerchenhaftes-thueringen.de/maerchenhaftes-thueringen-warum-der-komstkochsteich-komstkochsteich-heisst
