      This lake was created from the extraction of sand. Over time, the pit is filled with water and a habitat for animals and birds was created here.

          "The two lakes are hidden behind trees and bushes. The milky, cloudy water indicates the formation of many lakes in the Teveren Heath: the color comes from the many small clay particles that come from the clayey, waterproof subsoil. Clay used to be here next to gravel mined."

                      Lake Rohrkolbensee is a tranquil lake surrounded by forests and dunes, an idyllic spot for hikers and nature lovers. The water reflects the surrounding trees and dunes, creating a beautiful, serene panorama.
