You'll be only too happy to linger here a little longer... and jump right into the lake with your cycling shorts on :) A small sandy beach, crystal-clear water, nature at its most beautiful. A wonderful spot!

Super quiet and cozy location. On a summer bike ride, you'll definitely find the cooling, shade and wonderful water you're looking for here :) A cozy shelter to sit under rounds off this bathing spot perfectly. It's just a shame that dogs aren't allowed in this beautiful place - otherwise I would definitely have come back again with the other person.

Never again, in the forest you will soon be eaten up by mosquitoes, I was lightly dressed and almost ran through to avoid being sucked dry....👎 Also so badly marked that I got lost.

Small (half) island that can easily be reached on foot. Although there was more activity around the lake, we didn't meet anyone here and were able to enjoy the peace and quiet.
