    Mountain biking

    The Birkensee is not developed for tourism, but very popular with many Nuremberg residents. The quarry lake is located about 20 kilometers east of Nuremberg, between Schwaig and Diepersdorf (municipality of Leinburg).

    Mountain biking

    The local recreation lake Birkensee is fed by the groundwater of the Röthenbach, which flows into the Pegnitz in the city of Röthenbach. At the A9 / A3 motorway junction in Nuremberg, the Birkensee near Nuremberg lies in the Reichswald between Schwaig and Diepersdorf.

    In the 1980s, the Birkensee was brought up to today's double size for sand construction and since then a depth of up to 11 meters.

    The Birkensee attracts with great bathing opportunities and beautiful beaches. At the "end" of the large birch lake there is a beautiful place with lots of water lilies.
