    Hiking

    The region's local recreational destination and Germany's fourth largest reservoir was built in the 1930s and dams the waters of the Saale. The beach offers many options, including water skiing, various boat tours and, of course, perfect swimming opportunities.

    Hiking

    The beach is beautifully level and equipped with small pebbles. The view of the surrounding forest-covered hills is wonderful. You almost feel like you are in the Norwegian fjords.
