Hiking

The Pfaffensee is a paradise for ducks and birds. On the orders of Duke Christoph, it was artificially dammed in 1566 to provide drinking water, the Bärensee followed 50 years later and the Neuer See 200 years later.

Hiking

The Pfaffensee is one of the park lakes next to the Neuer See. These lakes were previously used to provide emergency drinking water for the city of Stuttgart.
