The Bernhardsbach stream feeds the Bernhardsweiher pond and then flows into the park's lakes. The Bernhardsweiher pond is a protected habitat for amphibians. Numerous signs along the hiking trail remind visitors to stay on the paths.

Pfaffensee

Highlight • Lake

The Pfaffensee is a paradise for ducks and birds. On the orders of Duke Christoph, it was artificially dammed in 1566 to provide drinking water, the Bärensee followed 50 years later and the Neuer See 200 years later.
