The Freilinger lake is a real oasis. Whether swimming, boating or walking, everyone gets their money's worth. It is simply beautiful here in both summer and winter.

The Weilerbach dam, also known as "Freilinger See", is located near Freilingen, about 10 km southeast of Blankenheim in the northern Eifel. The facility can be reached in about 60 minutes by car from Cologne or Bonn.

The dammed body of water is the hamlet in the Ahr river basin. The barrier structure is an earth dam. The operator of the dam is the municipality of Blankenheim.

The lake is a local recreation area and can be used as a bathing lake. About one third of the bank consists of lawn and two thirds of forest. The water is relatively cold, but very clean. You can swim, go boating, windsurfing, diving and fishing, among other things. There is a camping facility and a mini golf course by the lake. A hiking trail with a forest nature trail leads around the lake.

Beautiful lake with separate dog area and playground. The circular route around the lake is just under 3 km long.
