View of the Menzelsee

Highlight • Lake

Just like the Unterbacher See, the Elbsee and the Dreiecksweiher, the Menzelsee belongs to Düsseldorf.
The border to Hilden runs along the southern shore of the Menzelsee.

Tree-Lined Path by Elbsee

Highlight • Trail

A nice tour around the Elbsee, afterwards as a reward you can stop off in the really noble sauna area Vabali Spa and let your soul dangle 🥰. This is located directly on the Elbsee and is definitely worth a visit 💖.
