    This is the smaller, more accessible lake that emerged after the basalt quarries near Forst were abandoned in the 1980s. Today it's a nature reserve, so you'd better avoid swimming here. It's definitely worth seeing.

      Great location for a picnic in a quiet area with a fantastic view of the lake.

        Lonely basalt lake, the detour is worth it. Saw a kingfisher today
