The new route leads from the bathing meadow Deckerspitz to the Camping Ottensteien and back again.
The unique fjord landscape in the Ottenstein reservoir offers open water swimmers a pure natural experience.
The reservoir is only accessible in a few places and is therefore ideal for exploring by boat, canoe and SUP.
Attention: In 2025 we will offer 40 starting places . There is no fixed accompaning boat available.
