The Geeste reservoir was built in the 1980s as a cooling water reservoir for the former Emsland nuclear power plant.
It is now a popular bathing lake with an 850m long sandy beach with sunbathing lawns. Numerous water sports such as sailing, windsurfing, diving or stand-up paddling can be practiced in the 230 hectare reservoir. You can walk or cycle around the lake on the 8.5km long dike. There is a large children's playground, a facility for inline skaters and a beach volleyball court at the reservoir.
