At this inconspicuous but pretty pond begins the outflow of the small stream Linnefe, which flows into the Dhünn five kilometers later.

At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
And to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wit and "Another poem", with a short four-line verse:
"There is certainly a lot of beauty in the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can also leave it."
(H.Erhardt)

Unfortunately, it doesn't quite follow, as the pond is probably privately owned.
