Unfortunately the dam was empty but otherwise a very beautiful area

... and there it is, dam two on this day.
Unfortunately, I personally didn't really like the Lichtenberg dam for a hike. Due to the high number of paved paths around it (apart from the Fürsinnenweg), it is more of a nice round for the 🚴

A point game in the morning ⚽🥅 and what do I do with the rest of the day? ... take a walk around TS Lichtenberg😁

September 20, 2021,🇩🇪👣 Rund um die Lichtenberg-Talsperre🌀

I can't really recommend this hike 😳. The way there was consistently on asphalt, the way back on paths that were totally broken by large forest machines and were muddy. Almost nothing to see from the lake, you weren't allowed to walk over the bridges, so along the road ... Better not

Nice loop around the Lichtenberg dam. However, the path is relatively unexciting and at the end of the dam you have to cross a bridge on the S208 with no footpath. That's not ideal👀 . But to get some fresh air and enjoy the forest, the loop is worth it.

March 30, 2024,🐣🐇TS Lichtenberg - einmal rundherum🐸

Cozy Easter round🪻🐇 in warm but initially hazy weather around the Lichtenberg dam. There was asphalt under the soles at the beginning, slabs at the end and forest floor in between😉. The frogs 🐸 seemed to feel really comfortable on the paved path, as many of them were jumping around here (to the delight of the young people) - alone …

There is a hiking car park above the dam. Everything is well signposted and you avoid the road. The climb to the castle hill was worth it.
