Nice rest area and stamping point for the Harz hiking pin. Impressive when you have seen both variants (filled and empty lake)! Accessible via part of the Karst hiking trail.

The Bauerngraben is a depression that is about 400 m long in a west-east direction and about 150 m wide in a north-south direction. A lake forms here every now …

I thought it was really nice here (unlike other writers here). The lake was not a lake when I visited ;-) but I could enjoy nature and the silence very much. The way here is just beautiful too! Hope to see a filled lake next time :-)
