Säga pond (originally as a reservoir)
The Nendler-Sägaweiher originally served as a reservoir for the operation of the Sägarei Frommelt in Ziegelmahd (Säga industrial area) in Nendeln and was built between 1920 and 1922. Towards the end of the 1950s, hydropower was abandoned and the Sägaweiher was no longer maintained. With the upgrading of the system in 2018/2019, an extinguishing water reservoir with around 300 m3 of water volume could be created at the same time, which meets the needs of public safety and covers an area of the new forest fire concept.
The entrance to the Sägaweiher is located at the forestry operations building in Nendeln and, with a length of 1.2 km, leads past two waterfalls up to 710 m above sea level. There is a resting place with a public barbecue area, right by the green pond. The entrance to the suspension bridge to Planken was planned in the immediate vicinity. This project is expected to be resumed by the public sector shortly.

Very beautifully restored small pond with generous rest options and a barbecue area with enough firewood. Ascent options via the forest road or a very beautiful, well-maintained hiking trail, which is a bit exhausting, but leads past two imposing waterfalls.
