A lake in the forest

The lake has an area of 9.23 ha and belongs to the State Forests. It is almost entirely surrounded by deciduous forest, with only the south-western end lying outside it. White water lilies, yellow water lilies and rigid hornwort grow here, and the birds include the mute swan, tawny owl, mallard and coot. The water holds, among others, pike, tench, perch and bream. Fishing from the shore or from the jetties requires a permit.
