Glender Wiesen Bird Sanctuary and Goldbergsee Nature Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

The beautiful path along the shore leads over a bridge toward Callenberg Castle. It's a pleasant ride, with a fantastic view of the lake as you cross the bridge.

In addition to a very nice children's playground, there is a bench, the Friedrich Rückert monument and a clean, well-kept path around it in a small public but fenced park.

The Goldbergsee is one of the most visited local recreation areas between the districts of Neuses and Beiersdorf. The reservoir has an area of 145 hectares and primarily serves as a flood retention basin for the people of Coburg. But the lake and the area around it have long since developed into a popular destination for walkers, hikers, cyclists and nature lovers. Views of Callenberg Castle, which sits majestically on a mountain above the lake, the view of the nature reserve “Bird Sanctuary Glender Wiesen” or the idyllic Rückerthäuschen, where the poet Friedrich Rückert spent many happy hours, make a trip an experience. We also recommend the 14 km long “Coburger Meer” circular hiking trail, which runs along Lake Goldbergsee. From May to September, the “Goldstrand” restaurant there offers food and drinks and creates a real beach feeling with deck chairs on the sand.

Goldbergsee

Highlight • Lake

Goldbergsee, a 145-hectare reservoir located between the districts of Neuses and Beiersdorf, is one of Coburg's most popular recreational areas. Originally conceived as a flood control basin, the lake has long since become a favorite destination for walks, hikes, bike rides, and relaxing breaks in nature. In the idyllic surroundings of Coburg, you'll enjoy beautiful views of the majestic Callenberg Castle, perched high on a hill overlooking the lake, and the Glender Wiesen bird sanctuary. Also worth a visit is the Rückerthaus, where the famous poet Friedrich Rückert once spent many happy hours. A highlight for hiking enthusiasts is the 14-kilometer "Coburg Sea" circular trail, which runs along Goldbergsee and offers breathtaking natural scenery.
