A beautiful resting place along the Rivella Experience Trail with a pond, benches, and a barbecue area near the Barefoot Path. In July, we were able to observe and photograph many frogs here. A quiet place to take a break, enjoy nature, and let the surroundings sink in.

A wonderful, quiet place along the Rivella Erlebnisweg trail. We were here in July and really enjoyed the idyllic atmosphere by the pond. Two relaxation benches invite you to linger and observe nature. We could see, hear, and photograph many frogs – a small nature experience that particularly enriches the trail. A beautiful place to relax, take a breath, and enjoy.

In spring, there are always many frogs spawning in this pond and in a nearby pond. Therefore, drive carefully. The frogs cross the road, especially at night. Signs are posted along the way, warning cyclists to be aware of this.
