Tips

The area consists of half a meadow with a picnic bench and half of a lake that can be walked around. One part is secured with a wooden railing. A small collection of water lilies grows on the lake.

When strolling around the lakeshore, you can easily overlook the fact that the hiking trail simply disappears into the forest and does not follow the wide paths.

In the past, the lake has unfortunately been targeted by polluters who saw it as a landfill and dumped canisters in the lake. Most of them were toxic or corrosive substances.

The Gondershausen Forest Lake is a 0.1 hectare lake in Nörtershausen. It's always worth a visit, both in summer and winter.

The forest lake is undoubtedly magical. But when I visit it, I prefer to take the route from below out of the Preißbachtal. This access road, which is part of the Rabenlay dream loop, is a bit scary to me because of the density of wild boars in the area.
