🌊 Laufhauser Weiher – Natural Idyll with Barbecue Area The Poggrech Weiher lake is quietly nestled in the greenery between fields and forest. A rustic barbecue hut is located directly on the shore – ideal for short breaks, family outings, or a relaxing rest with a view of the water. Frogs croak, birds sing – it can be completely quiet here. Tip: The hut can be used for groups – please inquire with the local municipality in advance. It's especially beautiful in the early evening!

A tranquil natural idyll between ancient trees – here, the greenery reflects in the water, and with a bit of luck, families of ducks glide across the surface. A magical place that invites you to pause. 🧭 Tip: Take a few steps closer to the shore, but quietly – especially in the morning or late afternoon, wildlife often appears here. Ideal for nature observers and quiet photo opportunities.
