The pond is quietly nestled in the forest and is easily accessible via various hiking trails.
It was named after long-time district forester Horst Winter, who worked in the Königsforst, particularly around the Tütberg, for over 40 years.

Beautifully situated pond fed by the Holzer Bach.
In the middle of it all, an unexpected idyll in the Königsforst 🥰

Between the path and the pond, rust-brown water is clearly visible. The reason: This was the site of the Werner mine, where lead was mined for 2,000 years and zinc in the 19th century. kuladig.de/Objektansicht/KLD-311639
