뷔딩겐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

Lake Gedern is ideal for a family outing! Arriving early ensures good spots, especially in summer. There are shallow bathing areas for children, pedal boats, SUP boards and a nice playground. The adjacent campsite is perfect for longer stays. There are hiking and cycling trails around the lake through nature, which you should definitely respect. Barbecue and picnic areas make the day complete. P.S. Elvis Presley also used to like swimming here ;-)

Be careful. At major events, cyclists passing through are turned away. We spoke to the organizers of the Duck Meeting. They said we should explain at reception that there was still room for our small tent and that this had been discussed with them. On the second attempt, we were allowed to pay and stay overnight.

Nice path between the lakes.

A lake with lots of opportunities for camping, hiking, biking and more

Attention: The path between the two lakes was almost impassable today (6/2/23). There were deep tractor tracks in many places, probably due to the fact that it had been very damp here for weeks beforehand. It is possible that these tractor gullies were created when the farmer mowed the field, because everything was covered with hay, so potholes and gullies were often only noticed when it was already too late to avoid them.

The Kinzigaue of Langenselbold is a nature reserve in the town of Langenselbold in the Main-Kinzig district in Hesse. The nature reserve is south of the main town of Langenselbold, north along the Kinzig, south of the A 66 and east of the A 45. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Kinzigsee is a sport and leisure lake near Langenselbold near Hanau. It is about 23 hectares in size and divided into surfing and swimming areas. The Kinzigsee is an artificial bathing lake. For the construction of the A 66, gravel deposits were mined there and the resulting pit was allowed to fill with seepage water. This is also the reason why the water quality was questionable for a very long time and bathing was forbidden. The Kinzigsee has no natural inflow through a river or stream, but is fed by seepage water from the Ruhlsee, which is separated from the Kinzigsee by a narrow dam. This in turn is fed by a small tributary from the Kinzig which flows past. Due to the low proportion of seepage water, which flows from the Ruhlsee through the dam into the Kinzigsee, the pH value of the water has long been critical in the summer months and bathing was prohibited for reasons of health safety. In 2003, a membrane was introduced into the Kinzigsee, which separates the lake into a swimming area and a sailing and surfing area. Various chemical additives were then introduced into the swimming area, which cleaned the water and made it almost drinking water quality, so that since then the lake can be used again as a bathing lake without hesitation, which can be seen in the popularity from the entire Main-Kinzig district. There is about 600 meters of sandy beach, lots of meadows and sports facilities. (Source: Wikipedia)
