    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.

      Unfortunately, the viewing platform cannot currently be climbed and used. Too bad, because you have no clear view of the lake from this side through the reed belt.

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