The jetty was built in 1911 and is about 1,500 meters long.
Access to the jetty costs an entrance fee.
You have to be careful when walking on the jetty as some of the planks are very slippery, especially when wet.
In addition, leaving the jetty is prohibited because there is a risk to life and to protect nature.

The Federsee near Bad Buchau in the Upper Swabian district of Biberach is the second-largest lake in Baden-Württemberg, with an area of 1.4 km². It lies in the middle of the largest contiguous moorland in southwest Germany, covering 33 km², and is the remnant of a once much larger post-glacial lake covering approximately 50 km². This complex of lake and moor now forms the core of the geological Federsee Basin, which, following renaturation measures, now possesses outstanding natural and cultural-historical significance with its former shores and islands.Source: Wikipedia
