Small pond in the Grafenrheinfeld municipal forest. Good hiking and biking trails.

Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed. It's better to take a walk south of the lake. It's also interesting to see how many prohibition signs have been posted around the lake.

Opposite the nuclear power plant stands this wayside cross. As if it were a memorial.
