    Hiking

    Nice shore to cool your feet or let dogs in the water. Very shallow bank with relatively soft ground. Cozy bench to rest.

    Hiking

    This area was opened for recultivation as early as 1959 after brown coal mining; the public has had access since 1977 and can use the lake for all kinds of leisure activities. A slightly smaller neighboring lake remained reserved for nature and public access was largely denied. The name commemorates a board member of the coal mining company who died in 1967 and who, with foresight, advocated for diverse uses of the lignite mining area at an early stage.
