    The Knielinger lake is up to 21 meters deep in some places (between three and seven meters on average). It is the home lake of the Karlsruhe fishing club and formerly "Margravial waters". The lake measures two kilometers at its longest point and is almost 800 meters wide.
    From the shore, the view goes over the partly older barges to the Rhine bridge near Karlsruhe-Knielingen, which you can clearly see between the trees from some places. The place is suitable for rest, watching streams and fish. Children can throw stones. A building for the fish farm of the Anglerverein Karlsruhe e.V. (anglerverein-karlsruhe.de) is on the side of the road.
    A few years ago, the lake threatened to tip over due to a lack of oxygen. An inlet was built from the Rhine harbor basin. As a result, the water flows and sufficient oxygen comes into the lake. Flora and fauna are alive again today.
    Technical:
    The Knielinger See is designed as a gravel quarry lake. The rest of an arm of the old Rhine in the northern part of the lake has been protected under the title "Altrhein Maxau" since 1980 and the large quarry pond in the south since 1989 as part of the "Burgau" nature reserve. The lake borders the Rheinpark with the Hofgut Maxau on its eastern side. The Knielinger See is supplied with fresh water from the Rhine port. The water flows into the Alb via the Willichgraben.

        When it comes to fish farming, there are some nice spots with access to the lake and with shade.
