The Sonnenhügelsee is a former quarry lake west of Lengerich. Its eastern shore consists almost entirely of a dam that separates it from the neighboring campsite lake.
The Sonnenhügelsee, an idyllic lake in the Vechta district of Lower Saxony, is a popular recreational area that attracts both locals and visitors with its natural beauty and diverse recreational opportunities. The lake is located near Goldenstedt and offers a perfect setting for recreation and outdoor activities.
The Sonnenhügelsee was created by the mining of sand and gravel and has developed over the years into a natural and ecologically valuable body of water. The surrounding areas have been renaturalized and now provide a habitat for a variety of plants and animals. The clear water and clean shores make the lake an ideal place for nature lovers and those seeking relaxation.
One of the main attractions of the Sonnenhügelsee is the bathing beach, which attracts many visitors, especially in the summer months. The sandy beach and the lawns offer plenty of space for sunbathing, swimming and relaxing. A team of lifeguards ensures the safety of bathers during the high season. The shallow shore is particularly suitable for families with children, who can splash and play here without a care in the world.
In addition to bathing, the Sonnenhügelsee also offers numerous opportunities for sporting activities. The surrounding cycling and hiking trails invite you to take long tours in the charming landscape. A circular path around the lake allows visitors to explore the natural surroundings and enjoy impressive views of the water. The lake is also a popular place for anglers as it is rich in various species of fish and offers quiet places for fishing.
The lake and its surroundings are also a paradise for nature observers. The diverse flora and fauna, including rare bird species and plants, make the Sonnenhügelsee an interesting destination for nature lovers and amateur photographers. Many animals can be observed here in their natural environment, especially in the early morning or late evening hours.
Another highlight at the Sonnenhügelsee is the adventure playground, which was specially designed for children. With climbing frames, swings and slides, it offers plenty of variety and fun for the youngest visitors. There are also barbecue areas and picnic areas near the playground, which are ideal for family outings and social gatherings.
