It's worth a look. However, viewing is difficult due to the low ceiling height!

The bench at the "Schlinke Pond" in the forest is a great place to take a break during the "Forest Adventure Tour": Here, you can enjoy the tranquility and unique atmosphere of the forest with a view of the water in good weather and watch the dragonflies in their flight.
