A beautiful path leads all the way around Lower Franconia's largest lake. The lake is a great place for a break. You can grab a snack at the kiosk and, if the weather's nice, sit on the sandy beach.

A beautiful swimming lake, it was very busy today. If I had brought my swimwear, I probably would have had a hard time finding a spot.
