The Uettelsheimer See is a lake in the Duisburg district of Homberg and forms a local recreation area. In the south it borders on the Homberger Parkfriedhof, in the northeast on the chipboard factory Hornitex.
Gravel excavation resulted in a water surface of 23 hectares, the area (97 hectares) of which was expanded from 1969 to 1992. The shorelines were prepared, paths and a park landscape were created, and areas of retreat for flora and fauna were created.
There are 7.5 km of hiking trails in the immediate vicinity of the lake, including a 3.5 km long circular route, some of which are close to the shore. There is a water playground on the south-western bank. The lake is a fishing spot, but there are no bathing facilities and should be avoided.
