Kagerplassen, Lake system in Teylingen, Netherlands

Kagerplassen consists of interconnected lakes and waterways surrounded by green fields, forming a recreational water network northeast of Leiden.

The formation of these lakes resulted from centuries of peat extraction activities, which shaped the current landscape of South Holland's fenland area.

Multiple sailing schools operate in the region, including 't Vossenhol established in 1947, teaching water navigation skills to local residents and visitors.

Visitors need specific permits for fast boating activities, with seasonal passes costing €186.50 and daily permits available for €19.10.

The lake system contains several inhabited islands, including Kagereiland, while Boterhuiseiland serves as a base for regional Sea Scout groups.
