End of July 2026 - the jetty was stable and in good condition. Some photos show a railing - the bridge (more of a jetty) had none. There is a small step to overcome here - the jetty was dry (could be slippery in the rain).

A very inviting farm, delicious food, and reasonable prices. The landlady, Franziska, and her mother are very nice and friendly. I can wholeheartedly recommend the snack bar and would visit again and again.
