"...This lake was also created by gravel mining and is located in a nature reserve. To our delight, there is a beach club at the Effelder Waldsee, where we take a break. With a view of the lake and the water ski facility, we enjoy the sunshine. A DJ provides musical entertainment and the atmosphere is very chilled overall..."
