The lake and its surroundings are impressive in their beauty. It's also a good place to observe the many geese, storks, and other waterfowl.

The campsite is located directly on the water and offers pitches for tents, RVs, and long-term campers. The owner is very friendly, straightforward, and helpful. The restrooms and showers are also in very good and well-maintained condition. One of the best campsites I've visited so far :) You should bring your own food, as the restaurant closes at 8 p.m.

Unfortunately, this tower is closed due to the risk of collapse. However, there are two other towers nearby. As of March 9, 2025

Lots of peace and quiet, a lovely place to swim, camping right by the lake. Hammocks are no problem either. The snack bar is only open Thursday to Monday. On the other days you should be prepared, there are no shops. Bread rolls can be ordered. There are plenty of places to sit with a direct view of the lake.

The bivouac and rest area in Grütz is located directly on the Havelland and Havel cycle path. It can be used by water hikers and cyclists to camp for one night. There is a barbecue and fire pit (including wood supply), covered table and seating areas and WiFi access. 👍
