Here is a small bathing spot. More of a dog bathing spot in partial shade. There is no longer a bench here (as of May 2016).

Besides the love locks, the panoramic view over the Lanker See, framed by reeds, is worthwhile.

From the bridge, one has a magnificent view over the Kirchsee on one side and the Lanker See on the other... Behind the Kirchsee, the church tower of the town church rises, visible from afar.

Highland cattle are a very robust, undemanding breed of cattle, ideally suited for year-round outdoor grazing on extensively managed grassland and nature reserves. In extensive grassland management and landscape conservation programs, the breed's characteristic hardiness and undemanding nature are therefore of particular ecological importance.
