German authorities confirm the shutdown of recently established premises

The Sailing School at Unterbacher See is hosting an Open House Day on May 1st, inviting the public to experience the lake in a variety of ways. This annual event, a tradition for over 20 years, offers sailing opportunities, children’s events, and discussions about the future of the lake.

Visitors can expect to sail on the lake, with the sailing school sending its entire fleet onto the water. Families can sail together on the Polyvalk, accommodating up to 4 people, while two modern training dinghies are available for sailors of all ages. Children can learn about Optimist dinghies, suitable for children up to about 13 years old.

Apart from sailing, there are family-friendly events such as outdoor playgrounds and miniature golf courses right beside the lake. The miniature golf course has 18 lanes and is located on the northern shore, providing families with fun, accessible entertainment.

As part of community engagement, there are planned discussions and informational sessions addressing environmental protection, sustainable development, and the future recreational use of Unterbacher See. These talks involve local stakeholders and the public to ensure the lake remains a cherished recreational and natural area. Demonstrations of capsizing and righting, backward sailing, automatic life vest activation, and German Maritime Search and Rescue Society (DGzRS) information stand will take place.

The city of Düsseldorf is discussing the future of the Unterbacher See, aiming to create a sustainable and long-term viable guiding principle for its development. The public is invited to share opinions, offers, and suggestions for the recreational area, with feedback from May 1st flowing into the preparation of a citizens' workshop on May 19, 2025.

For those not interested in sailing, there are other options available. Non-sailors can test the covered panoramic boat or the party barge. The Lugger "Peter," a replica of a historic sailing boat from the 18th century, offers pirate trips for children.

A lucky wheel will be available, offering prizes like pedal boat rides, mini golf, beach entrance, taster hour, or grill place. Christian Zeelen will guide the program on the Open House Day. All information about the Unterbacher See can be found at www.unterbachersee.de.
