Just relax – with a lake view. The 32-hectare Tweelbäker Lake was created as a local recreation area in the municipality of Hude (Oldb) and the city of Oldenburg in connection with the construction of the Autobahn. A former sheepfold on the northeastern shore of the lake still recalls the former agricultural use of the heathland. The lake is surrounded by a nearly 4-kilometer-long circular path for walkers, joggers, and cyclists. A sandpit on the eastern shore has been converted into a beach volleyball court.
