On the weekends and during the summer holidays, bathing operations within the bathing area marked by orange buoys are monitored by the German Life Saving Society (DLRG) or by the indoor pool staff in good bathing weather. If the lifeguard is on site, a red and yellow flag will be hoisted. The municipality points out that on the other days and outside the marked area, bathing in the Westerholt bathing lake is always at your own risk.
