Many lawns. There is a barbecue area. Little shade.

The Rehnenmühle flood retention basin is idyllically located between Durlangen and Tierhaupten and not only provides flood protection in the Leintal valley but also a surprisingly calm atmosphere in the middle of nature. Especially in the mornings, the forest and sky are beautifully reflected in the water. With a bit of luck, numerous water birds can be observed here. During my visit, the lake was firmly in the grip of several goose families with plenty of offspring.

From the oil mill, the route is unclear. The sign says no entry. But how to continue? The path marked on the map doesn't exist. After several back and forth trips, we finally reached the house, then turned left, downhill for a short time, and then along the fence to a destroyed forest path. After the bridge, turn right to a clearing. The path ends there. The path shown on the map is also no longer shown. Instead, there's a beautiful trail right next to the Rot river to the end of the clearing. Then there's another wide, well-maintained forest path along the Rot river.

Mini golf and restaurant are currently closed and for sale, so it's better to bring drinks and snacks.

The path on the right side of the lake has been resurfaced and is now much more accessible. On the recorded route, access to the lake from the road is a very steep stretch of gravel, marked by two large stones at the entrance to the forest. It's a bit tricky with a stroller, so if you don't have an off-road baby, you should walk along the road, over the crest of the dam, and then drive across the meadow below. But it's doable ☺️ very suitable for dogs and strollers.
