The Gondershausen Forest Lake is a 0.1 hectare lake in Nörtershausen. It's always worth a visit, both in summer and winter.

The forest lake is undoubtedly magical. But when I visit it, I prefer to take the route from below out of the Preißbachtal. This access road, which is part of the Rabenlay dream loop, is a bit scary to me because of the density of wild boars in the area.

Located in the middle of the forest there is a very old pond system. The small pond "bell raft" with former forest workers shelter was built in the thirties the operation of a quarry. The ones used from the quarry Stones were used to expand the network of paths in the "Binnenberg" area used. The dam of the pond was made with the rest of the excavation material piled up. A legend tells that Emperor Napoleon was nearby the hut on the Klingelfloß when crossing the Hunsrück in front of you Storm protection should have sought.
