Top 20 Lakes around Laufamholzer Forst

Although it is quite large, on nice weekends it is too crowded and noisy for my taste.

Wöhrder See, Nuremberg Wöhrder See, the youngest of Nuremberg's waterways, is a popular local recreation area in the heart of the city, providing a natural habitat for endangered species. It is not a natural lake, but was created by damming the Pegnitz River, which flows through it. The idea for an inner-city lake existed as early as the 1930s. The project was approved for implementation in October 1959. In addition to the City of Nuremberg, the State Water Management Authority and the Middle Franconia District were involved in the planning and construction. Recreational concerns were not the only priority in the design. The lake is also part of the extensive flood protection measures after the Second World War. Construction work began in 1968 with the Lower Wöhrder See and continued until 1972. The sand trap above the waterway was built between 1972 and 1975. The final construction phase of the Upper Wöhrder Lake was completed in 1981. Text / Source: Nürnberg Infos.de / Nürnberger Nachrichten https://nuernberginfos.de/gewaesser-nuernberg/woehrder-see.php

Beautiful local recreational destination in the southern part of Nuremberg. Very spacious, close to nature, ideal with children... and also steeped in history!

The view of the Nazi Party's Congress Hall - a disgraceful chapter of German history. One cannot be reminded enough of this time with its many atrocities, oppression, and inhumanity.

A walk around the lake can be a lovely family walk. A total of 6.5 km with no elevation gain and a lovely, varied route.

Good for meeting up with acquaintances and friends.
