フライエンベッシンゲンの湖・トップ5

A small, beautiful and quiet idyllic pond near Schlotheim. It is leased to the Mühlhausen Anglers' Club.

Very comfortable rest area. If you are cycling along the cycle path you should take a little detour here for a break.

The hemp lake is silting up more and more and today no longer has any free water surfaces. So the bog is gradually disappearing.

The Sonder forest area has been a nature reserve since 1961 and, together with the neighboring forest areas on Oberholz and Großer Horn, is part of the European NATURA 2000 system of protected areas. The core of the area is the hemp lake, which was created by leaching rock salts in the geological subsoil. It is the largest of what were previously six sinkholes of this type. These sinkholes filled with water over a long period of time, creating lakes with no natural inflow and outflow, so they were fed solely by rainwater.

The bank at the pond was built in connection with the BUGA 2007 and has a special meaning - see photo of the attached plate.

The area is partly in a renovated, but also in a disintegrated state. It exudes its own charm. The walk through the small park and the peace and quiet at the 2 ponds is pleasant and invites you to rest.

There is a small witch's house right next door 🏚️

The Hanfsee is located in the Große Sonder forest area. Unfortunately, the paths are very overgrown.
