There's a truly enormous beach area here, very attractively designed and perfect for a rest. There's a very wide entrance for swimming, some sand in front, and a fantastic view of the entire lake. Its correct name is Wichmannsdorfer Haussee. Those arriving by car will have some difficulty finding a parking space, as the entire town is narrow and winding. The main street has no niches and isn't really suitable for parking, otherwise you'd create a serious traffic obstruction.

After a long bike ride, a view of the sunset at the first "tip" of the Unteruckersee, as a reward and welcome at the destination.

Be sure to visit the technical monument at the entrance to the church. The fully functioning clockworks of the tower clock. Fascinating technology.
