Here I took a relaxed rest. No, not because the tour required one, but because it was a great place.

Lake Liblar

Highlight • Lake

Lake Liblar is one of the cleanest bathing lakes in the Cologne/Bonn region and belongs to the town of Erftstadt in the Rhein-Erft district. The Ville lakes were created after the cessation of lignite mining. The former Liblar open-cast mine pit was recultivated and now offers numerous sports and recreational opportunities.

June 20, 2026,🇩🇪 Cologne: Am Morgen um den Liblarer See
We wanted summer. Now we have summer. But we didn't want that much summer... we took a walk around the Liblarer See in the morning, before the sun and the heat spoiled the enjoyment of it.

A hike around the lakes of the Liblarer Seenplatte (like the Liblarer See, the Bleibtreusee or the Obersee) is always a good idea! The area belongs to the Naturpark Rheinland and offers wonderful opportunities for a varied and relaxing tour. Like today at 31 C°🥵.

Nice little walk around Lake Liblar. The sun also came out ☀️

A day off before we go home with the new puppy. We found a beautiful lake and the weather is just wonderful. Finally time for beautiful photos again. Easy to run route directly on the lake.

Nice little tour after the holiday feast... It's also nice that it was close by....
