マッツェンハイムの湖・トップ10

An absolute natural idyll. Absolutely beautiful!!

The Dornskopf is a striking spot in the Taubergießen nature reserve, known for its typical floodplain landscape. Here, waterways branch out, surrounded by dense woodland and wet meadows. The area is particularly pristine and conveys the character of the old Rhine floodplain as it existed before the Rhine was straightened. With a bit of luck, you might spot rare bird species or signs of beavers. It's a place that exudes tranquility and showcases the wild beauty of the Taubergießen.

The access to the bridge is quite high and difficult with an electric wheelchair.

Beautiful flat and scenic route

There is a major construction site here at the moment and you cannot drive along here.

Parking lot to the quarry pond and hiking trail

just beautiful here. It is worth cycling here (for nature lovers).
