Happurg Quarry Lake North Shore

Highlight • Lake

The quarry pond invites you to swim and swim on hot days in summer. On the shore of the lake you can either spread your towel on one of the large lawns or look for a quieter spot on the opposite bank, which is lined by trees that provide shade.

So that you can simply jump into the cool water, there are jetties all over the lake that make it easier for you to access the water. But there is also a shallow water area for those who just want to get their feet wet.

Public toilets and a kiosk, where you can get delicious snacks, provide amenities at the bathing lake.
