A special project for the renaturation of the Vechte is the newly constructed weir, which restores the natural riverbed.

A beautiful, modern restaurant with an excellent menu. Behind the restaurant are men's and women's restrooms, each with a changing room. Ideal if you want to swim in the lake.

Beautiful rest area on Rheiner Damm, between junctions 61 and 72. Decorated with attention to detail. Therefore, everyone who stops there should take their trash with them to keep this rest area as it is.
