Barrier-free circular route
A 2.3 km long barrier-free circular path, which was opened on August 6, 2009, leads around the pool pond . The path is surrounded by reed beds , small forests and extensively used wet meadows . This circular route for hikers and walkers is also passable in winter and is pram and wheelchair friendly. At the edge of the path there is a guidance system made of strong round wood, which enables the visually impaired and the blind to walk around. Five display boards inform z. B. About the local diverse flora and fauna , the protection of species and about the history of the pool pond. Visually impaired and blind people can listen to the printed texts on the display boards using speech machines and use two scannable plans to scan the way. Part of the circular route is a 110 m long covered nature observation footbridge, which is also illuminated in the evening.
Nature reserve
The pool pond, together with the chain of ponds near Pichlberg, the Großer Hammerweiher and the inflow and silting area of the Neuweiher and other ponds, was declared a nature reserve by the government of Lower Bavaria from March 1, 2003. It is also the starting point and destination for several marked circular hiking trails such as the Große Büscherlweg and “ Ums Brandmoos ”, after which hiking pins can also be purchased.
