Large former quarry lake

A hidden biotope between forest and meadows, it surprises with its tranquil atmosphere. If you look closely, you'll spot turtles sunbathing on branches – a rare sight in the wild!

A large former quarry lake in the Filstal valley.

If you have a bit of time you can see a kingfisher. Beautiful at any time of year.

Here at the Upper Roßteich we were able to observe numerous ducks. There is also a bench where you can sit and relax.

Epplesee In 1919, Karl Epple from Bad Cannstatt founded a haulage business. In 1935, he signed a contract with the municipality of Uhingen to mine gravel for concrete production in the "Unterer Wasen" area. He acquired a building site to build an office building and house the machinery. He agreed with the municipality to employ mainly workers from Uhingen in his company. He also donated a generous amount of money every year to be distributed to the needy. The company was a pioneer in building materials with products such as ready-mixed concrete, dry mortar, sand, gravel and crushed stone. The exploited pits south of the Fils were largely refilled. In 1965, the Epple company was released from the contract. The gravel pond in front of the former sorting, washing and loading facility, the so-called "Epplesee", has been preserved to this day and is maintained by the Uhingen fishing club.

looks rather sad at the moment, because... Everything was drained for maintenance work.
