#1 - Vogelwoog
4.6 (18)·Easy·2.3 mi·Est. 1–1.5 hr
A patch of nature in Rhineland-Palatinate. The Vogelwoog area, which is under nature protection, is located between the motorway and the commercial area. But you shouldn't be put off by that. The Vogelwoog is a small lake and there are two other lakes in the area. Bathing is prohibited, as all lakes belong to the birds that live there and can often be observed. For this reason, dogs may only be taken on the leash. A very nice place to find peace and relaxation. Accessible by bus and train....
