The Beutwangsee The 6-hectare Beutwangsee near Neckarhausen was a quarry pond until 1977, in which you were also allowed to swim until 1996. Due to its low water depth, bathing in the Beutwangsee was forbidden. Today it is a popular local recreation area. The numerous lawns and barbecue areas invite you to sunbathe and relax. You can also use the tennis or golf course. A kiosk with a beer garden provides drinks, coffee, cake and snacks for your physical well-being.
