Wöhrder Lake

Highlight • Lake

It was really a nice local recreation area which is very well attended on weekends and when the weather is nice. The further you get out, the quieter it becomes.

In Ottensoos there is another place to stop for a break along the way, Rotes Ross. Lauf is always worth a stop. Beautiful path to the market square …

Today we cycled a section of the "Five Rivers Cycle Path" from Hersbruck to the industrial monument "Fabrikgut Hammer" near Laufamholz. I have wanted to visit this interesting industrial settlement for a long time. Since it is located directly on the "Five Rivers Cycle Path", it is no longer an insider tip.
