View of the reservoir in Saar-Hunsrück Nature Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here you are in the “middle” of the lake, where the two “arms” come together.
There is also a small shelter and several benches here. Ideal for a short stretch break.

Water, water and more water 💧.

After the rains and melted snow, it wasn't just the level of the dam that was high.
More or less large waterfalls or streams awaited you around every corner. It was splashing and rustling almost everywhere.

Little daughter chases with friends on horseback over the "customs officer", while mom chases around the dam 😉😊

Great tour around the Nonnweiler dam at a good twelve degrees and the best spring weather.
The circular path is gravel throughout - ideal for running, largely flat, only a few inclines and descents towards the lake.
