Ponds at Burg Herrnstein

Highlight • Lake

The ponds at Burg Herrnstein are open to hikers. Many species of birds such as swans or herons frolic on the ponds. You can observe breeding birds. Please take consideration of nature.

Bröl Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The path is a bit difficult, there are many fallen trees in the way. But then at the destination, nothing but peace and quiet. Dragonflies, ducks, herons, butterflies...
