Observation Tower at Lago Laprello

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice view, but unfortunately the tower is very unprofessionally "decorated". Too bad!

A lovely café/bar located directly on the shore of Lake Laprello near Heinsberg.

The outdoor terrace is beautifully designed with a sandy area and beach chairs.

From there, you have a wonderful view of the lake.

Lago Laprello Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

On warm days, Lago Laprello, with its sandy beach and a bathing area marked with buoys, offers a nice opportunity to cool off. However, there is no lifeguard. Swimming is therefore at your own risk.

Took advantage of the great weather and went on a very successful photo tour. Komoot shows the muskrat at the beginning. However, I saw it right at the end of the hike. Hopefully there aren't too many photos for you, I had a very large haul today.
