Rußweiher, Nature reserve and lake in Neustadt an der Waldnaab, Germany.
Rußweiher is a nature reserve and lake in Neustadt an der Waldnaab in Bavaria. The water body is part of the Eschenbacher Weiherkette, a connected system of several lakes in the region.
The area was placed under nature protection in 1951 to preserve its ecological value for future generations. This early conservation measure shows the long-standing appreciation for the site's natural resources.
Visitors gather at the beach areas to relax, play volleyball, or bring children to the play areas. Local residents use the space regularly for events and time with family and friends.
The water is regularly tested to ensure good swimming conditions, especially during summer months. Lifeguards are on-site and help visitors use the lake safely.
Bird watching stations around the lake allow visitors to observe various bird species in their natural habitat. These stations make the site a good spot for nature watching away from the swimming areas.
