Popular contact point and rest area for hikers and cyclists. In addition to the kiosk, which takes care of your physical well-being, barbecue huts can also be rented here. There is also a forest school for the little ones. Wild game is also sold here upon request and a bazaar takes place before Christmas.

After the mines were closed in recent years, groundwater appeared here, which was used to flood and thus renaturate the landscape. A beautiful biotope for birds and small creatures.

We feel a special connection to some places. But what does that actually mean? And how does such a relationship differ from one with a person?

Wheel of Fortune Exercise: Inner Developmental Goals 3 - RELATIONSHIP

As humans, we are born in need of help. Other living beings are capable of survival from birth; we depend on other people to feed us or protect us from cold and heat. And we organize the world so that it benefits and protects us. The fact that we are social, intelligent, and adaptable beings is our recipe for success.

Living together is (not) a stroke of luck. Look for examples from your own life where this coexistence works well. And consider how the attitudes and feelings below contribute to this.

(1) Appreciation
Approach others and the world with a fundamental sense of appreciation, gratitude, and joy.
(2) Connectedness
A strong sense of being connected to or part of a larger whole, such as a community, humanity, or a global ecosystem.
(3) Humility
Being able to act in accordance with the needs of the situation without concern for one's own importance.
(4) Empathy and Compassion
The ability to treat others, oneself, and nature with kindness, empathy, and compassion, and to cope with the associated suffering.

Even if your first glance at this point is at the lake with its dead trees:
It is definitely worth taking a look at the narrow watercourse opposite the lake. You can spot lots of frogs and dragonflies here!
