Idyllically situated among the trees, the Mühlenwaldweiher pond with its narrow wooden walkway invites you to take a short break. In summer, the water's surface is often covered with water lilies, while dragonflies and waterfowl enliven the scene. A perfect place to enjoy the tranquility of nature. 💡 Tip: It's best to visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon – this is when the trees are reflected particularly beautifully in the water, and the light creates a peaceful atmosphere.
