Baldeneysee

At Baldeneysee there is a beautiful sandy beach, which invites you to swim.
There you will also find the windsurfing school "Surf'n Smile" (surf-smile.de) with experience very nice and capable surf instructors.
Once a year a canoe regatta takes place from the local kayaking club, which also trains internationally successful athletes (including Max Hoff). Admission is free and always worthwhile.

Asphalted foot and cycle path around the Baldeneysee

Depending on the time of day and the day of the week differently animated, about 5 m wide asphalt road. mostly directly on the water, when empty terrific to the lawn, otherwise you just enjoy the view.

Ride around the Baldeneysee with the racing bike is recommended only in the early morning or on working days - or on days with very below-average weather!In times when many people are free, it is far too dangerous because of the hustle and bustle on the lake. And martial artists, who ruthlessly push through there, there are already more than enough.

Do not drive in good weather. It was packed and you had to constantly brake, accelerate, slalom, really slow.

Very nice route around the Baldeneysee. However, you have to push over the bridge on the weir and up and down stairs if you want to do a full round.
It is not a whole round, but only the south side along from Essen becoming over house Scheppen after Kupferdreh.

Nice view on the lake, watch out for much traffic on good weather, though.
