Most of the shore is surrounded by forest – this makes the lake very natural and quiet. It is located in the Sternberger Seenland Nature Park and is part of a charming hilly landscape with forests, meadows, and other smaller lakes. The lake is particularly suitable for those seeking peace and quiet and nature lovers – no mass tourism like on the Baltic Sea or the large Mecklenburg lakes.

It's also wonderful on a hot day, as you're walking through a wooded area. A detour to the Seehotel in Nakenstorf is well worth it - whether you need a refreshment on the terrace or just want to enjoy the view from the jetty over the lake. If it's rained a lot, the paths could be very soft in some places - even after a long dry period, these places still exist. If you still have the energy, you should take the peninsula at the end of the path.

You automatically cross the wooden bridge when you go around the lake. It is embedded in the jungle-like forest. Very well done!
