When hot summer heat is taking over the city, when the air is standing still in the Rhine-Neckar Area and the asphalt melting, there’s only one right to do: Grab your swimwear, hop on your bike and head out to the countryside, right into the cool, fresh water. Bring a friend, a frisbee and a watermelon to make it perfect. Here are the most popular lakes of our users in the Rhine-Neckar Area. They show you the most beautiful bathing spots surrounded by romantic forests, turquoise blue lakes and long sandy beaches, so you can easily surf the next heatwave.

The Epple lake here is a large quarry pond with an outdoor pool. After the season it is freely accessible. You can watch the sunset here wonderfully. There is enough seating.
The lake of the same name on the Baden side is not that beautiful. You can swim there for free (only parking for the car costs money).

We were absolutely thrilled by this small, idyllic swimming pond.
There is a parking lot, playground, kiosk with beer garden, toilet and changing room and a non-swimmer area.
There is no lifeguard, but there is also no ticket booth here😉👍!

The kiosk on Seehofweiher was completely redeveloped not so long ago and is now worth a real recommendation. We had different variations of tarte cake today, and they were all delicious.
The toilets are super clean and modern. The location idyllic, right on the meadow of the bathing lake.
