Forest lake in the Hainwald forest

Once a clay pit, the Hämelerwald forest lake is now an enchanting bathing spot that invites you to take a relaxing break. Surrounded by reeds and water lilies, the forest lake in Hainwald offers nature-loving bathers a peaceful and romantic retreat with spacious sunbathing lawns and a fine sandy beach. Visitors can also enjoy a small, attractive playground for younger guests.

The charming Forsthaus restaurant is located directly on the beach and offers a variety of delicacies and refreshments.

With an impressive 2 hectares of water, the forest lake offers plenty of space for water sports activities and relaxation on the water. The neighbouring campsite opens up further opportunities to enjoy nature to the full.

The forest lake is located in the Hainwald nature reserve and is supplied with water from the Ricklinger gravel ponds by the Maschsee spring. The good water quality makes the Waldsee a popular destination for swimmers and nature lovers.
