The approximately 35 ha pond, originally created for fish farming, still invites many to take a swim, but a beautiful excursion on the easily navigable paths around the lake is also tempting.

The path is not particularly special for cyclists, quite bumpy. It is located in a swamp or moorland area, after heavy rainfall it may not be passable - I have experienced that.

I'm not a fan of rating park benches as a highlight, but this is more of a shelter...or just a good resting place, so I'll give it a thumbs up.
