The building (former cafe) is in poor condition and the former Heidesee is more and more silted up. There is no water at all. The birch now gets back from the shore meter by meter.

Hiking

In the past, in the last century and when the hotel was still used as an excursion restaurant, there was even a boat rental shop here. The jetty is still there. Little by little the lake has silted up. Unfortunately, it has dried up completely since around 2018. Hardworking young people collected the rubbish from the lake bed.
The lake had no inflow.
Apparently it is not due to the lower water table but to the lack of precipitation.
