Kinzig Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The real purpose of the Kinzig reservoir or the Kinzigtalsperre are flood protection and power generation. The beautiful "by-product" can be used for biking. There is a 6.5 km loop …

July 7, 2024,Kinzigtalsperre Runde von Neuenschmidten 🇩🇪👍👍🚴‍♀️

This tour around the Kinzig Dam is something for the whole family or groups - or even alone, although the play stations are probably more fun with more people. There are 16 stations in total around the lake, you can read, learn, look, marvel. The tour is named after the grey heron Ardeas.

After the sun ☀️ decided to show itself, the little evening tour to the Kinzig reservoir simply had to be done.

After the rain of the last few days, it was surprisingly dry on the main paths. The Bertawege, on the other hand, are a single mud and water slope, which can be seen very well from the forest path above.
Around the Kinzig reservoir, everyone with legs was out and about and took advantage of the few rays of sunshine …

Alone, but finally outside again. Spontaneously jumped on the bike and cycled around the reservoir. I still have to work on the equipment for the weather 🥶
Have a nice weekend ✌🏽

June 3, 2023,Bertawege rechte Seite mit Kinzigstausee 🦎

Bertawege are dry again, at least the right ones via Mittelruhe, but they are quite marked by the unreasonable people who absolutely have to go through there even in mud and some places are now almost 3 meter wide gullies 🙈
Will soon compete with the Harvester tracks. I think it's a pity that it looks like this there now …
