Benches at the Sösetalsperre dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great rest area with two benches facing west. On the southern shore of the reservoir, this is the only acceptable break.

From the dam you have a great view over the lake and into the valley, on the walkable wall are niches with seats, perfect for the picnic break, during our visit the boards were ok again and very informative.
