Moon Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The two moon ponds are located in the middle of the forest. It is beautiful here, and not only when the water lilies are in bloom.

One of many granite blocks in the Blockheide that have been given a name. The devil himself is said to have used this one as a bed. After he couldn't sleep well there, his sleeping place turned to stone...
