Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Personally, the reservoir does not allow me. He is not dog friendly and seems very overweight. The bungalows are close together. Toddlers should not walk around outside without supervision, as there are no steep slopes other than a shield.

Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

On the north bank of the dam, a path runs directly along the bank. This is a beautiful hiking route where you can enjoy great views of the dam.

Oelsnitz Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

Sunday afternoon as empty swept. Restaurant? Beer gardens? None. Nobody can eat in Ölsnitz.

St. Jakobi Church Oelsnitz

Highlight • Religious Site

The Jakobikirche in Oelsnitz was first mentioned in a document in 1227. Today's building is an asymmetrical hall church, which is located in the east corner of the formerly walled old town. A wonderful building.

Circular Island at Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The island appears to have been constructed and secured with shore stones. Signs are posted all around it, but they are unreadable from the shore.

View of Pirk Bird Sanctuary Island

Highlight • Viewpoint

Everyone is always wondering where the swans went ?! Here are the swans and of course many other water creatures. In any case, we had a lot of fun watching the children of the family do the swimming exercises.

Pirk Forebay

Highlight • Structure

From here the path becomes a dirt track. The view of the water is obscured by trees. A little further you have a nice view again.
