A few boats lie quietly on the shore or float gently on the lake. The surface is smooth. Trees line the lake's edge, and behind them, a path leads through the landscape. It's a quiet place—perfect for a break.

Above Lake Plötsch, an idyllic rest area with a bench and table invites you to linger. From here, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the approximately eight-hectare, up to twelve-meter-deep lake. To the north lies Lake Garrensee, and to the south lies the Schwarze Kuhle. A peaceful circular path leads around the clear waters.
