The castle pond in Burgwalden is a picturesque pond in the Augsburg - Western Forests Nature Park, about 20 kilometers southwest of Augsburg. It was created in the 16th century when the Augsburg patrician family Höchstetter built a moated castle, which no longer exists today. The pond originally served as a water source for the castle and for fish farming. Today the castle pond is a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. There are well-developed hiking trails around the pond that lead through the idyllic landscape of the western forests. The "castle and church tour" is particularly recommended, an easy hike of about 7 kilometers that leads past the castle pond. Near the pond is the Church of Our Lady and St. Francis, which was built by the Höchstetter family in 1513. Opposite the church, the Burgwalden forest restaurant invites you to stop for a break. The castle pond is not only a place to relax, but also an important biotope. It provides habitat for numerous animal and plant species and contributes to the biodiversity of the region.

One of the largest ponds used for carp fishing.

Beautiful lakes. Lots of single trails perfect for mountain biking.

The castle pond is one of the largest ponds in Burgwalden and of course there is a story about the castle pond, because a castle cannot be seen at first, it is in the pond.

The Rothsee is a dammed bathing lake near Zusmarshausen. Water surface approx. 10.5 ha, length approx. 860 m, width approx. 140 m

Very idyllic, the small lakes. Very good photo opportunities.

Fantastic nature, highly recommended especially in midsummer, as the tour often runs comfortably cool in the shade.

Nice, half natural lake.
