Sösetal dam

Highlight • Monument

From the dam you have a great view over the lake and into the valley, on the walkable wall are niches with seats, perfect for the picnic break, during our visit the boards were ok again and very informative.

Sösetalsperre Dam

Highlight • Monument

The view from the top of the lake is just beautiful. Driving along the reservoir is just plain fun. There are many information boards with a lot of information about the lake and the forestry.
