Beautiful area with three shelters, plenty of BBQ spots & benches. Two shelters are located across a bridge, firewood was provided. On the main shore there is a bathing area and jetties as well as a bathroom block with two toilets (incl. an accessible one). There is also a sitting area with charging possibilities in the block, however it was closed in September.

Very nice short hike, we really enjoyed it. Our 9-year-old dog also had fun because everything was nice and shady under the trees and he could cool off in the lake. Ideal for people who prefer short tours.
