    Hiking

    An observation tower was built here, named after the German animal photographer and filmmaker. Luckily, because the reed belt around Lake Galenbeck looks like an opaque wall, where fascinating bird watching is hardly possible.

    A wooden lookout tower overlooking the Galenbeck Bird Reserve. Silence and only the sounds of birds that you will not hear in standard conditions.

    The observation tower is usable again. It offers a good view over the reeds; a spotting scope is very helpful.
