Water Strider

I move effortlessly across the surface of Lake Wolfsgrubner – like I’m dancing on invisible skin.
The secret? Surface tension!
Clean water molecules hold me up so I don’t sink.
But when pollution enters the water, everything changes.
The surface weakens – and I can feel myself sinking. That’s not great, because I love gliding smoothly and hunting tiny insects. I can even jump up to half a meter!
Luckily, at Hotel Weihrerhof, I have nothing to worry about. No cleaning agents or pollutants are released into the water here. The surface stays clean – and I can enjoy my dance undisturbed.

Tales and moments, mysticism and magic

History or stories? Dream or reality? The boundaries between reality and fiction blur almost imperceptibly. The cuckoo murmurs, the pine whispers, the little brook gurgles. And they all tell stories of their experiences and fantasies. Around the Wolfsgrubner Lake.
