ベルガトロイテの天然記念物・トップ20

Since 1995, the pond has been part of the designated Young Moraine Landscape Conservation Area between Amtzell and Vogt. Due to its poor water quality, the Holzmühleweiher was included in the Tübingen Regional Council's "Action Program for the Rehabilitation of Upper Swabian Lakes." Source: Wikipedia

First mentioned in 1818, the pond was about four times as large until it was partially drained in the mid-19th century, and the resulting terrain is still visible. Today, the Holzmühleweiher is a popular fishing spot. A small lido is located on its northwestern shore. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holzm%C3%BChleweiher_(Vogt)

A quiet spot at its best.

Beautifully situated pond, insider tip.

Here you can relax

Amphibians live between land and water. Peat ponds and ditches form the nursery for frogs, toads and newts. Some species only spend the larval period in the water, others remain loyal to the wet element for life. That is why we can only observe common toads, common frogs and moor frogs during the spawning season, whereas water frogs can be seen all summer long at the reed ponds.

Picturesque moor lake, created by peat extraction.

Riedsee: You can walk/hike around the lake on a beautiful boardwalk and information path. Not wheelchair accessible, as there are steps and some sections of the path with lots of roots.
