The intention to use particularly durable material for the Oderteich is best demonstrated by the harrow system. A shaft with a cross-section of about 1.10 × 1.20 meters was built into the dam at the deepest point in the valley. This shaft is lined with large hewn granite stones and reaches the natural valley floor. From the bottom of the shaft, an incoming channel 0.75 meters wide and 0.90 meters high leads into the storage space. As a result, the storage space of the pond always communicates with the water level in the shaft. From the bottom of the shaft, two wooden gullies made of oak with square cross-sections of about 25 × 25 centimeters lead to the air-side dam foot. They have an inlet from above at the bottom of the shaft, which is closed by a curry comb similar to a bathtub plug. This pin can be pulled or lowered from the harrow house above the shaft via a linkage. The oak drain is installed in such a way that it is always under water, even when the bottom outlet is closed, and therefore hardly rots. The entire bottom outlet construction is called a harrow.

Beautiful circular route around the Oderteich. However, some passages are not barrier-free. As a tip for hikers who prefer to be on their own, please go there early and not necessarily at the weekend. Otherwise there is a risk of a mass run
