Although not far from home, this area is completely unknown to me. It won't stay that way... The path on the old dam, along the old Main, was very beautiful. The bird sanctuary too!
And I also thought it was great that there is no longer a nuclear power plant there ;)

The coexistence of a bird sanctuary and a nuclear power plant? I couldn't imagine it - BUT it seems to have worked.
Nice to walk here. Everything is very decelerated and quiet, except for the geese ☺️
Work on the cooling towers for the blasting is probably already being prepared.
