Sure worth seeing, but the complex is private.
If you drive around the lake, there are many beautiful sights.

The lake rests quietly and rigidly... A real feast for the eyes, especially at this quiet time

The Kahler Seenplatte lies on the border between Hesse and Bavaria and consists mainly of quarry ponds. Here sand and gravel as well as lignite were extracted. Today there is a campsite here and the lakes are a popular destination.

A beautiful circular route. But very poorly marked. We often had to ask for directions.
