Despite the gently sloping, gravelly beach, it's worth taking a short break to enjoy the view and head down to the water. Nearby, "Der Fischer" (The Fisherman) invites you to stop for a rest.

Imposing barrage on the Lech River. At barrage 22, the water is diverted from the Lech River to the Lochbach, where three additional, smaller weirs are located. On the northern edge of Augsburg, the wide, parallel Lech Canal branches off towards Meitingen and only flows back into the riverbed after more than 20 kilometers. Along this Lech Canal are three power plants built between 1898 and 1922 (Gersthofen, Langweid, and Meitingen canal power plants). The power plants along the Lech generate an average of approximately 3–4 billion kilowatt hours of electrical energy per year. More: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lech

The Lechsee and the Lech itself are always worth a visit.

The water is usually still, reflecting the surrounding floodplains and forest strips, while rolling hills loom on the horizon. The vastness of the reservoir can be best appreciated, especially from the dam or the riverside paths—a peaceful place where waterfowl circle and nature reveals its tranquil side.
