A beautiful pond, with an island in the middle that serves as a breeding ground for ducks and swans. Unfortunately, it is often very overgrown with algae in the summer.

Wieseckaue Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

An easily navigable, but less busy bike path outside the city park, directly along the Wieseck. Sometimes you have a clear view of the Eichgärtenallee and in the end all the way to Rödgen.
