Good day. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with Tevion 1505. The water is very beautiful but the board of the association is the worst. The board threatens people just because they can't get their rules written into the water regulations. We were even threatened with violence and that he would come with a few men and help us if we didn't take down the rain protection for anglers. disgusting. No one identifies themselves when they are checked, they shout when they are asked to identify themselves. That was the last time.

Bachfeld is located on the Krellsen stream and is a large farming village. It has been documented since 929 and initially two large farms were known. In the village of Bachfeld there is a cozy center with well-kept houses. The course of the Krellsen through Bachfeld is well worth seeing with its narrow streets and bridges.

An idyllic little reservoir that is dammed by an earthen wall. The excess water flows off via a ford, which should not be crossed. The water is crystal clear and is the perfect place to take a break.
