Tips from the Community

March 5, 2026, Weiheranlage Bous

The pond system at Bommersbach is a natural retreat with tranquil water, shoreline vegetation, and small observation points. Reeds, trees, and the typical pond landscape create a peaceful microclimate, ideal for observing birds and aquatic life. Such facilities often serve both as recreational areas and – depending on their use – as well-maintained club waters with regular stocking and shoreline management.

The fishing hut on the grounds of the Bous Angling Club is an ideal starting point for the Bous Trail: Here you'll find a large overview sign showing the route (both the short and long trails), and you're immediately out in nature by the water. It's a peaceful place to arrive – and later a lovely destination when the loop ends back at the Bommersbach stream/pond. If you'd like to stop for refreshments: According to the club, the fishing hut is currently only open on a limited basis; it's best to check the current opening hours with the ASV (Angling Club). https://www.asv-bous.de/fischerhuette/
