Beautifully situated basalt lake. Ideal for a break

Quite inconspicuously located, on the abandoned Thuringian Rhönstrasse, the lake invites you to linger. The splashing of the waterfall, which caresses 10m of the basalt wall, gives this place something special.

Insider tip, ice cascades form in winter, some of which can also be climbed.
