Strandhaus Schöner at Olga Harbor

Highlight • Restaurant

The beach house at Olgahafen is really good and inexpensive. There is a playground opposite. The fish is highly recommended, but there are plenty of alternatives if you don't like fish or prefer something sweet.

Wet meadows in the Dümmer lowlands

Highlight • Natural

In all seasons of the year ornithologists get their money's worth in the nature reserves around the lake: some rare species only stop here on their journey to other regions, others have settled and spend the whole year in the 45 km² large area shaped by the Hunte Wetland of the Dümmerland.

West shore observation tower on Lake Dümmer

Highlight • Viewpoint

In addition to the four observation towers around the Dümmer, another tower was added in 2018. It stands directly on the water's edge and offers a beautiful view of the lake. From here, new insights into the north bay, which is part of the Dümmer nature reserve, emerge.

Dümmer Lake Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

You can not only observe the extraordinary bird life from the lookout towers. There are also well-known resting places where you can see snipes, cranes and other bird species. Depending on the time of day, the cranes gather at feeding or sleeping places.
