Surrounded by green spaces and modern buildings, the lake offers a peaceful atmosphere in the middle of the city. The well-maintained path around the water is suitable for a leisurely stroll or sporting activities. Numerous seating areas invite you to enjoy nature.

The little bench stands in a spot with a great view. The Schönbuch with its villages, Herrenberg, Gültstein, Kayh, Breitenholz and Altingen up to the Wurmlinger Chapel can be seen well. With good visibility, the Swabian Jura too.

The cathedral is the most dominant building along with the fountain in front of it on the market square.

There are some single trail sections that are quite challenging and require you to push the bike.

Beautiful and very large medieval castle ruins – clearly visible from afar as a landmark above the town of Nagold. Accessible via various hiking trails through the forest surrounding the Schlossberg. Great views of the Heckengäu, the Black Forest, and, in good weather, even the Swabian Alb. Served on weekends in the summer. Regular events are also held.
