The peace of the forest, the birds and the insects, the reflections of the trees in the water look like living watercolors. Stopping and enjoying is a must for lovers of nature. You have to enjoy a gift like this, it has a lasting effect. I call it FOREST BATHING. Anyone who has the patience to watch a dancing dragonfly has won.

It has beautiful paths (e.g. around the small lake), many sports facilities and a large playground. Furthermore, there is a large parking lot and an overview board for this recreational area in front of the Klingbachhalle.
