Artistic Carp Sculptures at Steigerwald Ponds

Highlight • Monument

The ponds are in the middle of the forest with beautiful hiking and mountain bike trails. The small view tower stands in the middle and can enjoy the beautiful view.

Carp Ponds and Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

A beautiful landscape with several ponds and in the middle a viewing platform from which you have a beautiful view over the ponds. A peace and an idyll where you can really relax.

There are eleven carp ponds next to each other with mallards. Then there is some distance and a few more ponds, very idyllically located.
