    Take a break here to enjoy the beautifully reflected trees in the water of forest pond Heidestein.



    This pond is part of the Heidestein estate. This estate was created a hundred years ago when it came into the hands of the Wetstein Pfister family. Mr. de Wetstein Pfister had a large pond dug next to the former villa Heidestein, with a wooded island in the middle, in the context of job creation. From the remaining soil, he had a wall built from the remaining soil between the villa and the pond. To get from the house to the pond, he constructed three tunnels: two pedestrian tunnels and a sailing tunnel.

      There’s a fun little tunnel that you can run through. It is a bit dark in the middle, but there’s always light at the end 😉

        Crystal clear water that would not be out of place in the Alps.
