This is a nature reserve and strictly speaking, some of the paths are forbidden to enter (which a lot of locals do anyway, especially with their dogs).
The nature reserve offers a variety of tours and events, which are all highly recommended. They have a fantastic team of rangers.
This is a former mining area which can be nicely observed by the long islands by the overburden ("Abraum"). This sandbank islands make this lake particularly interesting for plenty of bird species.
