Wooden pier with pavilions on the lake

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

Unfortunately, it is very inconvenient directly on the street, but you can stop there for a photo.
I do not know whether the pontoon can be walked on because the gate was closed.

The Poggensee outdoor pool is one of the most beautiful outdoor pools in the district. The pool is surrounded by beautiful old trees and is therefore a wonderful summer oasis. For water lovers there are plenty of opportunities to swim, splash and play. A water slide in the separate non-swimmer area and two bathing islands complete the offer. Active sports enthusiasts can play football or use the beach volleyball court. If you fancy a snack, the kiosk has an attractive selection. https://www.badoldesloe.de/B%C3%BCrger/Freizeit-und-Sport/Schwimmhalle-und-Freibad/index.php?object=tx,2965.1&ModID=9&FID=2965.75.1&NavID=2965.28&La=1

Due to large agricultural operations and biogas plants in the vicinity, heavy oncoming traffic with very large and fast machines can be expected all day long, especially during the harvest season, and at times there will be dirty roads and confusing road junctions and field exits!

Poggensee is a district of Bad Oldesloe. The outdoor pool at Poggensee is the only access to the lake shore, everything else may not be entered. By the way, "Poggen" is a Low German expression for frogs or toads.
