Affenberg Schenke Beer Garden and Stork Nests

Highlight • Pub

Beautiful, shady beer garden with delicious food and drinks at fair prices. Very friendly staff. All around the storks are sitting on the roofs. Great to watch and hear the rattling.

If you miss the castle lake, it's your own fault! Free parking, free swimming, great adventure landscape for the little ones to splash around in and for the swimmers the pirate island with a pirate ship and obstacles on the island is just great.

Schlosssee (Castle Lake) – Natural Swimming Lake, Salem

Highlight • Lake

Why keep looking for a parking space at Lake Constance, pushing hard together in the lido? Why pay admission?

Here at the Schlosssee in Salem-Mimmenhausen (access and parking from Mimmenhausen) the community has built an incredibly beautiful lido for young and old. With a water park for the little ones, islands and a giant pirate ship to climb and jump into.
Extensive sunbathing lawns with plenty of shade around half the lake offer plenty of space. You can throw yourself into the fray in the restaurant/playground area, but you can also quietly crawl further away.
Admission free!!!
Parking for many cars available.
Plenty of bicycle parking spaces available.
Various sports facilities available, see photos.
DLRG keeps bathing supervision with boat and several supervisors.

The buildings for the changing rooms and the restaurant/café were rebuilt in 2015/6 and are now top notch. The tenant is also new and really well organized.

A treat even without bathing suits:
A footbridge runs around the entire lake, which is great for walking (no bikes!) - unique!

P.S.: The locals, they go swimming here with their families, the crowds at Lake Constance are left to the tourists... (no offense meant, but reality)

Nice evening tour with manageable inclines. Past Salem Monastery, the Affenberg with its stork nests and the many ponds in the area

Today the Barbary macaques at Affenberg in Salem were the temporary target. It was really impressive and very beautiful. Entrance fee €12.50 per person. Afterwards, our goal was to cool off at a lake again. The castle lake in Salem is beautifully landscaped, a paradise for kids with the wooden pirate ship and entry is free. Highly recommended ☺️
