Hiking

The name itself makes it clear that this is not a natural body of water, but rather that the area of today's lake was used commercially in earlier times: The natural material clay was mined. Instead of filling the resulting pit after completion, the lake was created.

Although the Tongrubensee is not far from the outskirts of Röttgen, you feel like you are in the middle of nature ... A nice place to find peace ...
