Unterbacher Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Unterbacher See is an old quarry lake. After the gravel was taken out, the lake fed by the groundwater, which today has bathing beaches, a high ropes course and campsites, remained. On the north shore there is a restaurant with a view terrace and a boat rental.
