Clear water, lots of nature, but also many people - you can always find quiet corners, luckily!

Peace and quiet by the lake, sun and water, and almost no wind. That's where I feel at home.

The cabin is clean, which is something worth mentioning these days…

The Schilfbruch is a nature reserve covering approximately 274 hectares between Hänigsen and Uetze. It is one of the largest alder swamp forests in Lower Saxony and includes wetland and riparian forests, oak and beech woodlands, and near-natural ponds and pools. The Thöse River flows through the area, and a system of ditch dams regulates the water balance. Directly adjacent are Lake Irenensee and the Spreewald lakes, which serve as local recreation areas. Challenge: Drought and falling groundwater levels threaten the habitat – protective measures are intended to stabilize the water balance.

There aren't many routes where you can drive in such a straight line for so long and still get to see so much.
