Parks & Nature
Beautifull nature reserve with lot of birds to watch in spring and summer, but winter days can by quietly beautifull aswell. I also recommend going around sunrise or sunset to see the amazing colours and mists hanging around the place. There is also a small cafe to warm up of cool down with some beverages.
