It is very beautiful here and there is even a small jetty to go into the water. The place is also good for resting or spending the night.

Good spot to observe the water world of the lake. The path from the bike path to the tower can be very muddy

This observation tower is located along the cycle path between Schorssow and Dahmen. If you are looking for a detour from the path, you will find an interesting highlight here.
