Formerly a raised bog, it became a mountain lake through the construction of a small dam.

The lake can also be seen from above (ascent to) the Hohneck.

Pleasant to walk, the incline through the block heaps...is really …

Hike through the Wormsa Valley to Lac de Fischboedle. A lake like the Wildsee in the Black Forest. The ascent is almost alpine and requires sure-footedness. But the ascent is compensated by wonderful nature and the lake.
