Tips from the Community
Beckenweiher The Beckenweiher, along with the chain of ponds near Pichlberg, the Großer Hammerweiher, the inflow and silting area of the Neuweiher, and other ponds, was declared a nature reserve by the government of Lower Bavaria on March 1, 2003. It is also the starting and finishing point for several marked circular hiking trails. A 2.3 km long, barrier-free circular trail runs around the Beckenweiher, which opened on August 6, 2009. The trail is surrounded by reed beds, small woodlands, and extensively used wet meadows. This circular trail for hikers and walkers is accessible even in winter and is stroller and wheelchair friendly. A guidance system made of sturdy round timber is installed along the trail, allowing the visually impaired and blind to navigate the trail. Five information panels provide information about the diverse local flora and fauna, species conservation, and the history of the Beckenweiher. Part of the circular trail is a 110-meter-long covered nature observation platform, which is also illuminated in the evenings. (Currently not accessible!) Source: www.wikipedia.de

A beautiful nudist complex with a well-tended lawn. A toilet facility and the opportunity to buy something to drink. The complex is divided into two halves and is separated by a green strip of trees. Wonderful access to the water with fine sand like the sea 🏖️ ATTENTION on both sides there is a nudist obligation, bathing suits are not welcome but there are many other ponds all around! The facility is operated by the association for natural recreation and nudism e.V. http://www.fkkvereinstraubing.de/
