A quiet spot by the water and in the middle of the forest. Is there anything more beautiful? The last storms have noticeably scoured the forest around. But that does not spoil the idyll. We always like to make a detour from the planned way to rest there.

This quiet, idyllic forest pond is an artificial ponds pond, which accumulates the Steinbach and other mountain streams and was created for mining purposes.
