Lake Happiness
Summer Freshness
In summer, the Kneipp area at the Hopfensee lakeside with the floating Kneipp island, herb and fragrance garden and benches inscribed with Sebastian Kneipp’s thoughts is a place of refreshment and recreation.At the music pavilion you can listen to the sounds of various music bands while taking in the unique lake backdrop. At the lido, those who enjoy swimming will find their undisturbed spot - and many piers lead into the refreshing waters of the natural bathing lake. On a cycling tour you can get to the neighbouring lakes.
