    Especially in late autumn, when the last bathers have left the lake, the quiet lake shows itself in its most beautiful splendour. The circular path is consistently accessible with a stroller and therefore particularly family-friendly. In summer, the lake offers numerous bathing opportunities with a snack station on the southern shore.

    Author’s recommendation

    In winter, the lake is a popular playground for ice skaters and ice stock sport players.

    From the car park at the former inn, first along a forest road along the western shore. At the first junction on the southern shore turn left to the snack station. From there a short stretch on a path along the southern shore. Again on a forest road you reach a car park at the end of Offensee district road. From here continue to the junction on the left to the starting point.
