Originally built in the 1970s for domestic water supply, the reservoir is now a local recreation area. It is an EU-approved bathing water with a forebay as a children's paddling pool. Additionally, rowing boats can be rented during the summer months. Two snack bars are open in the summer.

The Bismarckbastei is a historic viewpoint on the steep slope of the Göltzsch valley. Built in 1890, the rock formation offers an impressive view - secured with a railing. Today, the site is a popular hiking destination, easily accessible via over 250 newly constructed steps.

It's quite a windy day coming from below. But it's worth it: the view stretches out over the trees of the valley. Up on the rock would also be a good place to rest.
