Lake Schieder

Highlight • Lake

There is a circular path DIRECTLY on the lake, and another leads a little further from the lake shore around the reservoir. On Sundays the inner path is busy with a lot of pedestrians. This requires a lot of consideration and slows down the bike speed.

Schiedersee Dam

Highlight • Lake

The Schiedersee is officially called Emmer-Stausee and is a reservoir on the Emmer near the town of Schieder.

The lake was dug in the late 1970s and has long been a fantastic recreational area.

Today the lake is home to many water sports clubs and is visited by many day guests in the summer months. A private motor ship called 'SchiederSee' sails on the lake.
The length of the lake is around 3 km and it is around 350 m wide.

The narrow streets with the old half-timbered houses are a worthwhile destination for a little break.

April 16, 2023,Tour zum Storchendorf u. Schwalenberg

Today, despite the drizzle, our tour took us to several beautiful places. First Lügde, a place with very beautiful old half-timbered buildings. Then we went to the stork village, there were 9 occupied stork posts, great to watch. Then Schwallenberg, also very beautiful old half-timbered houses. All around a nice bike ride. Except for the rain😒🥴
