In spring it is teeming with frogs, a break is fun, just no seating by the lake, a pity as the lake has Scandinavian flair.

Until the first half of the 20th century, the pond was called Silberteich (Silver Pond) due to its clean water. It served as a reservoir for the former Alte Grube (Old Mine) on the Hohen Warte hill. Until 1962, the pond was used as a drinking water reservoir for Gernrode. Since then, the town has received its drinking water from the Rappbode Dam. After heavy rain in 1976, the pond's dam broke, and the water flowed as far as Gernrode, 3.5 km away. Following this disaster, the dam was reinforced and equipped with an overflow system. The pond reaches its greatest depth of 12 m at the dam. Source: Wikipedia

A beautiful, narrow, and fairly easy trail. At one point, it's narrow and sloping toward the stream. But overall, it's easily passable.

A place for relaxation and recreation, where you can take a leisurely stroll and enjoy nature 🌳. And on warm days, you can sit in the shade on one of the many benches to cool off...😀.
