Carlsfeld Reservoir (Wilzsch Reservoir)

Highlight • Lake

In the small open-air exhibition you can see a real water slide, an average model of the dam wall and interesting display boards. The models are on the east side, more display boards on the west side of the dam.

Here you can get from the Kammloipe to the connecting trail A8 in the direction of Carlsfeld (Gasthaus Staumauer).

Used the last rays of sunshine and sub-zero temperatures and made the narrow planks

Blue skies, rain and sleet showers, thunder rolling - everything included. April.

Today I'm going on a farewell tour with my dearest Ines...my heart is heavy, of course, but if it makes her happy (the move), that makes me happy too, that's what makes a true friendship...Ines has the beautiful one area around Eibenstock, which we will conquer together...it's just easier together...a great pension and the best weather, heart, what more do …

... the last day of hiking together took us back into the surrounding area. "First a lap on Oberjugel, then up to our Auersberg" and a hike around the Carlsfeld dam ... with a picnic and the barbecue concert "listen in the evening"
