A very beautiful pond complex, but it is closed for a circumnavigation, as it is privately owned. But you don't need it either, because the idyll of the freely accessible "waterfront promenade" is beautiful.

The former mining pond of the "Louise" iron ore mine is a water lily paradise. From a perfectly placed bench, you can enjoy the lake and reflect on the painter Monet.
