로르바흐 바이 마테르스부르크‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 호수

So, a retention basin is not a lake! It's used to collect water masses during floods.

beautifully landscaped natural swimming pond in quiet surroundings

When I got closer, I kept searching for the huge lake, but only found a small biotope. An information board and some dams finally provided the information. After a major flood, a correspondingly large retention basin was built.

Very nice swimming pond, top condition

Quiet, idyllic location, good for a break.

A beautiful swimming pond with a lawn, large trees and a children's area. The snack bar staff were very friendly.

The Forchtenstein bathing reservoir is fed by the Haidbach. It is located in the middle of "Paradise", as the side valley of the Rosalien Mountains is called. It is 15,000 m2 in size and scores points for its natural shade. Oases of peace and water fun are the best ways to describe the area. It is particularly popular with families as it has very shallow access. A diving tower and a water slide, beach volleyball court and playground for the little ones provide variety. On the sun terrace with a wonderful view of the lake, the canteen spoils you with one or two delicacies. Whether you are a bather, hiker, cyclist or walker - a visit is always worthwhile.

natural bathing pond. The 4€ day ticket for entry was absolutely worth it, even if we only stayed here for an hour on a very hot day. Children's paradise, shady spots on the sunbathing lawn even on a hot Sunday afternoon in July, friendly staff in the canteen with a beautiful shady terrace.
