The shelter, which was closed in October 2024, has now unfortunately been dismantled and not repaired. What a pity.

A wonderful vantage point on the southern shore of Lake Bergen. With a lot of luck, you can see wolves in the wild from here. An El Dorado for nature filmmakers and nature lovers.

Although I've seen wolves several times in Lusatia, I've never seen them here - that's just how it is with insider tips. But there are many other animals. I can also recommend binoculars because there is always something to discover.
