Received a €200 fine. The area is in a drinking-water protection zone, so spending the night is prohibited.Translating
We are spending our second evening here. The car park is really good for 1–2 nights. The scenery is great, with plenty of hiking trails, and the best thing is the view of the lake. Shopping facilities are about 5 km away. The toilet, well... like at a motorway stop. But for free, okay. Gladly again.Translating
Basically a beautiful place. But if you want peace and quiet, you should avoid it on nice-weather days. I happened to arrive here relatively early. Later, the car park resembled a campsite. Unfortunately, there are also people who don’t know how to behave. Music, campfires and camping behaviour are out of place here. Please be considerate, thank you!Translating
At the entrance, a sign says that the site is in a drinking-water protection zone. Therefore, as stated on the sign, spending the night is prohibited. We drove on.Translating
Beautiful place with a view of the lake. Somewhat sloping in places. The road can clearly be heard at night, but it didn’t bother us for one night :)Translating
Beautiful and quiet place. Despite being near the road, there is hardly any traffic noise. Very nice view of the meadows and reservoir. Swimming is prohibited here for nature and water-protection reasons. Public toilets with running water, soap and toilet paper are clean and regularly maintained and cleaned.Translating
We are here now and absolutely delighted. There is direct access to the water, and a hiking trail in the other direction as well. You can hear the road slightly, but at night it is certainly very quiet.Translating
Great car park. I was here alone and undisturbed on a Monday. Take your rubbish with you, and it should remain possible to park here without problems in the future.Translating
Clean and beautiful parking area overlooking the Kalte Bode flood-protection basin. Swimming is prohibited here, although we saw several swimmers. We were able to sleep here without any problems.Translating
Beautiful car park, used several times, open year-round. The toilet has always been clean so far. Well located for hiking and other activities.Translating
Great car park with a really cool view of the lake. Very quiet and secluded on the country road. Not too noisy, as there is hardly any traffic there in the evenings. However, on windy days it is a little less pleasant if you are travelling with a roof tent, but otherwise that doesn’t matter. Great place, gladly again!Translating
Clean car park. Unfortunately, the toilet is currently broken. Perfect for walking the dog. Wonderful scenery. We’ll definitely come back!Translating
Ideal for one night. View of the “lake”. The place is popular, so you may or may not be lucky… Some people arrived in the evening and had to drive on. Toilet available, but we didn’t use it.Translating
The site is understandably a little fuller on warmer days, so it’s worth arriving earlier to get a good spot. The view is really beautiful; you can look directly at the lake, which is about 200 metres away. All the parking spaces are slightly sloped, but that has never bothered me. It is quiet here at night; the road has little traffic.Translating
Okay for one night. A lot of trash, poop and paper in the grass Translating
Wonderful, wonderful place overlooking the small lake. Super quiet, with nothing but fields around you. Pure relaxation and perfect for spending the night. The car park is signposted; there is no payment machine on site.Translating
Super beautiful parking area with a great view. The slight slope on the spaces is absolutely bearable for one night ;)Translating
Very beautiful, peaceful place by a lovely lake. Unfortunately, swimming or anything similar is not allowed. Fine spot for one night.Translating
Good view, toilets on site (mind opening times)Translating
Very beautiful car park, although some parking spaces have a slight slope.Translating
Nice place by the lake! The toilet was fine, but is only open 8-20, someone before us placed a stone in the door so we were able to use it. Only water from the toilet sink Translating
Little toilet hut open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.Translating
Stayed here for two nights; it was very quiet and very nice for a short stay.Translating
Few level spaces, but already good for walking the dog. Free overnight stay.Translating
