Traveler reviews
N G
★★★★★2 months agoGreat time at this strandbad in late May, the springboards and floating platforms are really fun. The water is clear with lots of entry points, and the grounds are nice and well maintained. Well worth the price of admission.
Frank Calberg
★★★★★Edited 3 years agoSwimming in the lake was a great experience. Besides swimming, there are good possibilities to do other sports such as chess and table tennis. The quality of showers both outside and inside is excellent. It is clean and orderly everywhere. Beautiful flowers, plants, birds, sculptures as well as well designed and well kept lawns contribute to making this space a pearl. Thank you very much.
