      Nice for a break and in good weather, the kiosk has opened for the little hunger or thirst

        Bathing in this pond is simply awesome. In addition, there is a huge lawn for sunbathing.
        Everything fits.
        In the 1950s and 1960s, the pond was often frozen over in winter. Then it was off to the ice and ice hockey was played. Once a year the pond was completely drained. Then we did "mudflat walks"

          The pond was created by hand by 30 unemployed people in 1925/26.

                Beautiful reservoir with a large lawn. Either to rest or swim. Parking spaces are available. 👍

                        The "Ewersbacher Meer" is always worth a short break. Beautiful bathing pond, freely accessible, sometimes in summer with DLRG watch. Kiosk with ice cream, fries, sausage and drinks and changing rooms available at the Burbach station.

                            The reservoir is ancient and has what is probably the oldest three-meter board in Hesse.
