This is (perhaps) the main town in Dümmer. Accordingly, it can be a bit crowded here.

Lake Dümmer, the "little sea," is the second largest and one of the most popular lakes in Lower Saxony. Its 12.5 km² of water surface is nestled between the Damme Hills and the Stemwede Hills. Located in the heart of the Dümmer Nature Park and as part of the Diepholz Moorland and the DümmerWeserLand region, it invites you on an exciting journey of discovery. On the eastern shore of Lake Dümmer lie the main holiday resorts of Hüde and Lembruch, captivating visitors with their maritime charm and offering a wealth of attractions. Lake Dümmer and its lowlands originated from the post-glacial developments of the landscape. Water and wind carved out the basin between the Stemwede Hills and the terminal moraine of the Damme Hills, which today define the landscape as ridges. After the last Ice Age, around 10,000 years ago, the deeper layers of soil also thawed. In areas with abundant ice and little sand, the ground subsided and filled with water. This is likely how Lake Dümmer was formed. Back then, Lake Dümmer was almost ten times larger than it is now. A large part of the lake has silted up and been gradually cultivated as peatland. Until the middle of the last century, it regularly overflowed its banks over large areas before being diked. https://duemmer.de/duemmer-see/

Dümmer Lake is a great place to cool off. You can also cycle around it and there are some lovely places to stop for a break.

A very beautiful lake that is worth going around by bike or on foot! It is a 27 km long circular route through nature!

A lovely destination! Always worth it 👍
