Mountain biking

There is a path around the lower reservoir that is used by pedestrians, cyclists, hikers and Nordic walkers alike. It can get tight, especially on weekends.

Nice lake view with restaurant. Marvel at the technology at the dam.

The Happurger See (366 m above sea level) is a reservoir embedded in the Hersbrucker Alb, surrounded by the Houbirg (618 m), the Deckersberg (586 m) and Reicheneck. Created in 1955 to generate electricity, the reservoir today delights bathers, sailors, cyclists and hikers, especially in summer. Great path around the lake. Whether Nordic walking, cycling or hiking, the circular route is ideal for this. Route length about 4 km. We recommend the lakeside terraces, a café and restaurant.
