The Moorfreibad Ottermeer with a fine sandy beach, water slide and fenced-off non-swimmer area. It is possible to walk well around the lake, plus there is a kiosk, adventure playground, beach volleyball, deckchairs for a fee, as well as pedal boat and SUP rental facilities.

My recommendation: take a hydration pack and everything you need with you; it can be quite lonely at times on the trail 😉 At night it's an absolute highlight when it comes to nocturnal animals.

Flat-bottomed boat used to transport peat on the fen canals. The display tells you a lot more about this bygone era. Right next to it is a second boat. Right next to the Peat and Settlement Museum
