The Woldsee (also called sand pit Wehnen called) is a west of the city of Oldenburg situated Stretch at Wehnen , district Ammerland , Lower Saxony .
description
The lake was created in the early 1970s through soil extraction for the construction of the A 28 . It takes its name from the forest area Wold, which adjoins the lake.
The lake is used as a swimming and fishing lake. In parts it has a near-natural bank with reed zones and bushes. On the west bank there is a sandy beach , in front of which a shallow water zone has been created as a non-swimmer area. The non-swimmer area is separated from the rest of the lake, which in some cases drops steeply to a depth of 14 meters, by a chain of floating buoys.
During the bathing season, if the weather is good, a water supervisor is provided by the DLRG local association Bad Zwischenahn . A circular path runs around the lake. Part of the east bank is designated as a nudist area.
The Oldenburg – Leer railway line runs between Woldsee and A 28, while Woldsee is directly south of the railway line. To the north of the Woldsee, between the railway line and the motorway, there is a second quarry pond that has no official name and, unlike the Woldsee, is not open to the public, but is used as a private fishing lake.
