How good that the Elzauen exists. As you can see, the Elz has overflowed its banks here. It's nice to walk/run/cycle along the Elz. If you want, you can cover kilometers and kilometers here

Great swimming lake, even with sanitary facilities. Parking for cars €1.80. Unfortunately, swimming has been banned since the beginning of September 2023 due to blue-green algae.
