Pfingstsee

Also this lake is owed to the mining. The seams in the subsurface can be thought of slowly and there are always such depressions. It's just good that nature is stronger than humans. Here a little stream meandered a few years ago.

Here you can observe wild ducks, wild geese and other waterfowl along with their offspring.

Here you can still encounter nature in its most natural form. The plants and fauna blend beautifully together in this place and form an exciting ecosystem.

What a great atmosphere in this place. I imagine in winter or fog very great. We were there by sun and already blown away. A real hiking highlight!
