Beach Cove at Waldsee Moers

Highlight • Beach

In the south of the Baerler Busch, the Waldsee lies in the Moers urban area. The forest lake (a renatured gravel pit) is surrounded by forest all around. Immediately next to the Waldsee the Rheinpreussen dump towers up.

Sandy beach by the forest lake
