Great lake, great for cycling around and very suitable for families because of the many playgrounds, sandy areas and places to stop for a bite to eat.

The riverside path is easy to navigate throughout - and the elevation is low. It's great that the hiking and cycling paths are separate. There are plenty of restaurants on site. A trip to the surrounding villages is also worthwhile.

The 🏞️ 4-lakes tour was absolutely perfect for a free Sunday on the bike today with the great sunny☀️, but still fresh weather 🚵🏽‍♀️💨.
