Magnificent view of the lake. Plenty of places to stop for a break, but also plenty of anglers who don't want to be disturbed. The coffee at the campsite is inexpensive and good.

Beautiful forest lake that was created as a result of a flood protection concept. Campsite with lakeside restaurant and good fishing opportunities.

The quartzite quarry ponds are remnants of the quartzite quarries in Berod. Quartzite was mined here between 1921 and 1984 and was used in the glass industry and for refractory materials.
