Dam through the pond

The cool thing about the Étang du Welschhof is that the path leads over a dam right through the pond. Further up there is a small floating bridge.

Étang de Welschhof

Highlight • Lake

The Rue de l'Étang divides the pond into two parts. In the northern part there are many small fishing shacks. You can take a nice walk around the southern part.
