A very beautiful Kneipp pool at the Seewoog lake. After a strenuous hike or bike ride, you can refresh your tired calves there.

The sand pit on Heidenberg (alternative name: Kessel von Schwedelbach) is a natural monument in Schwedelbach, a local community in the Kaiserslautern district in Rhineland-Palatinate. The wetland biotope with the natural monument number ND-7335-274 is located in an abandoned molding sand pit on Heidenberg south of Schwedelbach at the end of Mackenbacher Straße. The sand pit is characterized by heavy bush growth and is surrounded by steep sand walls. The biotope complex - a kettle-like excavation - contains a small, species-rich body of water measuring around 10 ares and a fragmentary dwarf shrub heath threatened by strong tree succession. The sand extracted here was delivered to the local foundries and to a brick factory and used to fill a moor near Ramstein. Sand mining was stopped in the early 1970s. The old sand pit was placed under protection in the late 1970s after a population of the rare spadefoot toad was discovered there. Since then, other endangered amphibian species such as the great crested newt and the common midwife toad as well as numerous dragonfly species have been sighted. There is a small viewing platform and an information board at the natural monument.
