Duck Pond (Near Herforst)

If you are looking for something to do on a gorgeous day near Spangdahlem, then I have the place for you!

It's a beautiful area with a duck pond.

This is a great place to go, with or without kids.

The last time we went, there were a few small groups of people enjoying drinks and board games.

My kids love it and I do too-it's a great place to go and run around and feed the ducks.

It's not the easiest place to find, so here is some detail to get there:

Coordinates of the park entrance

Entrance to the road you go down to get to the park.

Entrance to the park.  Park your car along the road outside this entrance.

Inside the park entrance.

You can walk around the entire pond.  There are picnic benches surrounding the pond.

Across the street from the park is a private ostrich farm.  The owner will allow you to take at look, but do NOT feed or try to touch the ostrich.  But, it's something to see in addition to the ducks.

The entrance to the park is on the left.  The ostrich farm is on the right.

Things to know: 

Take your own bread for the ducks

So far, I have found no bathrooms there

You can bring your own food and games

There is no playground equipment, but many paths to run on
