What a beautiful spot, especially at sunset. Recently, there have been strict controls to ensure that the bathing ban is being observed. There used to be a lot going on here. Campers from the fishing club, people seeking peace and quiet, or sun-seekers can all find a place here. The lake is worth a visit at any time of year.

The Westhausen reservoir is located south of Westhausen, surrounded by fields and meadows. The quiet bathing lake is perfect for sunbathing and offers cooling off on hot summer days with a dip in the cold water.
