Birkensee (Schwanberg)

Highlight • Lake

It is interesting that the water supply to the Birkensee has not yet been discovered. I like the island very much and there is also seating with a table for a picnic. Just take a seat and enjoy.

The running weather was perfect today, the number of participants has decreased significantly since Corona and, unfortunately, so has the mood on the track. Nevertheless, I'm happy that I crossed the finish line in 58min 48sec and beat my practice run by 6min 😅. 136 participating women, of which I finished 32nd. Fits 💪🏼🤩
