Town Hall View at Maschsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

On a circular route around the Maschsee, this view from the middle of the south bank is a "feast for the eyes". During my laps around the Hannover body of water, I have always photographed here. I have been delighted by this motif in all seasons.

Maschsee

Highlight • Lake

The Maschsee is an artificial lake 2.4 km long and 180 to 530 m wide south of the city center of Hanover. With an area of 78 hectares[1], it is the largest body of water in the Lower Saxony state capital. The lake allows numerous water sports and is a popular local recreation area. The name of the lake is derived from the "Leinemasch" or simply "Masch". This is the historical field name for the area where the lake was created. It is a lower-lying floodplain of the Leine.

I passed the time waiting for the Bruce Springsteen concert to begin with a nice walk around the Maschsee. On the way from the lido to the Heinz von Heiden Arena, I had the lake all to myself in some places. Very relaxing...
