Beautiful picnic area with a small shelter (can be rented as a barbecue area) - and a wonderful old oak tree!

🎨 Sculpture Trail at Lake Ohmbach Discover seven works of art by Lilau along the accessible lakeside path – from sandstone frames to oak sculptures to limestone sculptures. Each work of art tells the story of home, water, and balance – perfect for a walk with a sense of art and nature. Tip: Take a break at the "Heimat" sculpture – position yourself so that the lake appears through the sandstone frame. In the evening light, the "Pierre de Soleil" stone sparkles particularly impressively.

☀️ Picnic area on the southern shore of Lake Ohmbach A quiet resting spot right on the water – two benches and a table in the shade, with a beautiful view of the lake. Ideal for a break on your circular hike. Tip: It's best to come in the morning or late afternoon – it's quiet, cool, and particularly atmospheric then.

💧 Glan River Loops – Natural Elegance in Gentle Movement The Glan River winds its way through the landscape between hills, fields, and meadows in wide curves – sometimes leisurely, sometimes lively, but always close to nature. The loops offer beautiful photo opportunities and peaceful moments right by the water. Ideal for nature lovers and anyone who appreciates tranquility. Tip: The most beautiful views are often from slightly elevated field paths – especially in morning mist or golden evening light.

Whether you're with a partner or the family, you can glide across the lake in a relaxed manner and enjoy the scenery from a whole new perspective.

📍 The Roman Pond near Dittweiler was created in 1975-76 from a damp meadow in the Kohlbach Valley. Today, it's a popular meeting place for walks, barbecues, and summer festivals. Its name refers to earlier Roman settlements in the region. Next to the pond is a lovely playground with a barbecue area—ideal for a hiking break. 💡 Tip: Fancy a rest with a view of the water? Then the bench below the pond is perfect—with a view of the meadow, the table, and the idyllic village.
