Idyllically located lake at the end of the Tiefenbachklinge gorge, where you can also find some water lilies in the summer months. There are seating facilities at the edge for a short rest.

An impressive building, the outdoor area with its cast-concrete climbing wall is a definite eye-catcher. There's also food and drink available.

The "Three Wells" are located at the easternmost end of Sindelfingen's city forest, about ten kilometers from Sindelfingen. A municipal circular hiking trail leads directly past them. The spring area is designated a natural monument. The section of forest in which the "Three Wells" are located was transferred from Rohr to Sindelfingen on April 3, 1562, through negotiations by Balthasar von Gültlingen, hereditary chamberlain and steward of the Duchy of Württemberg. The spring itself has been known for approximately 300 years.
