    The overflow threshold is passable and I recommend this little detour for the great view over the lake and the sound of the water.

    To prevent major flooding, the 220-hectare Alfsee was created between Rieste and Alfhausen from 1972 onwards, capable of holding up to 13 million cubic meters of water from the Hase river; a retention basin holds another eight million cubic meters.
    The retention basin is designated as a nature reserve. The Alfsee is a 2.2 km² reservoir in the north of the Osnabrück district in Lower Saxony (Germany). It serves as a flood retention basin for the Hase catchment area and as a local recreation area.
