Rainwater runoff reaches the airport lake primarily via the main tributary, the Schwarzer Graben Canal, which collects rainwater from large areas (approximately 700 hectares) south of Reinickendorf. Before reaching the airport lake, the Schwarzer Graben Canal passes through a settling basin where particulate matter is sedimented.

From the airport pier you have a beautiful view of the basin, especially in the evening hours.
