When the hot summer heat takes over Düsseldorf—when the air starts to stand still and the asphalt starts to melt—there’s only one thing to do: Grab your swimwear, hop on your bike and head out to the countryside, right into the cool, fresh water. Bring a friend and a frisbee for the perfect combination.
Here are the komoot community's favorite lakes around Düsseldorf. They show you the most beautiful bathing spots just outside the city. Let yourself be enchanted by cozy excavation pits with large beaches, impressive dams and lakes with wooded shores and turquoise blue water—so you can easily surf the next heatwave.

The Kaarster See actually consists of two lakes, a bathing lake and a sports lake. There are two beaches at the bathing lake, one of which has a non-swimmer area and a beach volleyball facility. The sports lake is for sailing, fishing, windsurfing and diving.

The lake is not only great for cycling, but especially for swimming. At Unterbacher See, there are two beach resorts with large lawns and sandy beaches. A bath is located on the north shore and one on the south bank.
Both beach baths are open in the summer from 10 to 20 o'clock. Admission costs 4 euros each for adults, 2.30 euros for adolescents and 1 euro for children.

The Fühlinger See is a true rowing paradise. International competitions take place here.
In the middle of summer, the largest reggae festival takes place here. Tents everywhere, people singing and stoned. Of course also drunk or just tipsy people.

If you cycle around the lake, you can treat yourself in good weather a break in the beach. There you can relax on white sand and dive now and then in the turquoise waters of the lake - almost like on vacation.

A nice destination for the whole family and the shore area falls off flat, so really good for children. Beautiful lawn, there is beach volleyball, table tennis and Co.
The natural pool is open from 1 May to 31 August (seasonal extension depending on the weather) daily from 10 am to 8 pm. open. Admission is € 2.50 for adults and € 1 for children also fully okay.

A visit that's worth it. In good weather very crowded. If a place is free on the neighboring you have a great view of the water ski track.
