The nature reserve in the upper part of the Aartalsee is smaller than the lower part of the lake between the main road and the dam, but its islands are beautiful to look at. The cycle path also runs right past the lake and you have a clear view of the lake.

The NSG is particularly attractive during migration, when many species of water and wading birds as well as seagulls rest there. Of the breeding birds in the NSG, the following are particularly noteworthy: skylark, meadow pipit, whinchat, reed bunting, lapwing and snipe.

Aartalsee foreshore. Nature and bird sanctuary. The path is made of very fine gravel and is very easy to navigate. The elevation gain on the route is almost zero. The circular path around the foreshore is generally a little less frequented than the path around the main lake. You can walk around the foreshore, the main lake or both. Paths around the main lake are asphalted. There are plenty of places to sit at short intervals.
