Lopausee Amelinghausen

The Lopausee is a reservoir east of Amelinghausen in the Lüneburg Heath. The Lopau was dammed here in the 1970s by a dam to form a lake with a size of approx. 12 hectares. The dam is parallel to the road embankment of the passing B209.

The lake is used exclusively as a nature area and for local recreation. The water quality is good; Fishing and swimming in the lake is possible. For the latter there is a bathing beach and a pontoon in the lake. Visitors can circle the lake on a 2.2 km long footpath and bike path. There is a restaurant and a pedal boat rental on the shore. For some time now there has also been a high ropes course on the lake. There is a children's playground in the Lopaupark am See. Every year during the traditional heather blossom festival, the lake is the stage for the grand opening fireworks display.

Lopausee spillway

Highlight • Waterfall

The dam is located right at the beginning of the tour from the 'Auf der kalten Hude' parking lot at the underpass of Lüneburger Straße. The sound of the rushing water is very pleasant. There are several seats where you can listen to the rushing sound, which is very relaxing. A visit is highly recommended 👍.

A path through and into the heather is worthwhile at any time of the year - wonderful to relax and breathe.
