The Decksteiner Weiher lake is located in the heart of Cologne's outer green belt. Although it was originally artificially created in the 1920s, nature has long since reclaimed the surrounding area. Numerous running routes lead through the forest and around the lake, but the lakeside path is also a delight at a leisurely stroll. No matter the season, if you want to take a short break, this corner of Cologne practically invites you to do so. A very special highlight in autumn: the chestnut tree avenue along the canal between the two larger lakes.
