Lake Dankern lies west of Haren (Ems) in the Emsland district and is an artificially created bathing lake of approximately 30 hectares. It was formed in the 1970s by the extraction of gravel from a former sand pit and is now part of the Schloss Dankern holiday resort. The lake features shallow shorelines, a sandy beach, and good water quality, making it a popular destination for swimmers, sailors, and surfers. Surrounded by forests and dunes, it is also an excellent area for hiking.
