Viewpoint: Wasserburg an der Dhünn

Highlight • Viewpoint

A bench for a break in exactly the right place. From here you have a great view of the dam. It is also an information point about an old moated castle that stood here a long time ago.

Große Dhünn Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The drinking water dam and its banks are protected by law. Therefore, there are hardly any negative effects on nature. Almost the entire hike is off-road. You feel very much for yourself. Pleasant!
