Even in winter, a visit to this platform and a walk along the moorland path are worthwhile. The tall grasses and tree stumps have a mystical quality amidst the icy and snowy landscape.

Unfortunately, you can't walk all the way around it, as there is no way to go any further on the other side of the lake (from Frankenberg/Elster). But you can still see a lot of the beautiful lake.

Simply enjoy this fantastic nature with all your senses. I was at the moor platform in the afternoon and evening and depending on the position of the sun there were beautiful impressions and light reflections on the lake.

a beautiful, quiet spot on earth ... at least in spring ... in summer there is certainly a lot going on there (several bathing spots, at least that's how it seems to us)

One of the waters is private and the other is only suitable for fishing. Still worth seeing
