A very beautiful, tranquil pond in the middle of the forest. A small bench for a break along the path and a short trail up the slope for a better view of the pond.

It used to be a lovely lake for swimming. The lawn is no longer mown regularly and the water is not very inviting in warm weather.

Sinningen bathing lake, crystal clear and good for swimming or SUP. The kiosk right on the lake is also recommended! Often open from May to October, no matter what the weather (19°). There are cocktails, cold drinks and good food. Awesome lake with great service!
