A spring pot with clear water. Nice view and a good starting point for a trip towards the near Bärental or the old Tower.
The buildings nearby the pot are private property.

Very similar to the Blautopf, but completely calm and peaceful!

Beautifully situated next to an old mill. A place with a very special flair.
