View of the Obernautalsperre from the bench

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the nicest resting places at the Obernau. If you drive counterclockwise, you can recover from the small slope ;-)

A little further away from the dam it can be a little quieter.

View of the Obernau Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

The circular route around the dam always offers varied views. It is worthwhile in any weather, even if there is a lot of activity when the weather is nice. Then cyclists, runners and walkers need to work together.

Highlight • Monument

There is a nice circular route around the dam. The path has no significant gradients and is therefore also recommended for families.
