Neufelder See

Neufelder See is a bathing lake in Neufeld an der Leitha that originated from a former mining site and now functions as a recreational facility. The water body features varying depths and sandy or gravelly shores with equipped areas for swimmers and sunbathers.

The lake formed when a lignite mining area was flooded after extraction operations ceased and the site was redeveloped. Water filled the former extraction pits and transformed the landscape into a recreational resource for the region.

The lake serves as a gathering place for locals and visitors throughout the warm months, drawing families and friends to its shores for swimming and leisure. People spend their days here enjoying the water and relaxing along the banks in a casual, community-focused setting.

The lake is accessible during warm months and has facilities including changing areas, food options, and parking at various points along the shore. Plan enough time for travel and orienting yourself around the water, especially on busy days.

The water reaches pleasant temperatures during warmer months suitable for swimming, and there are designated diving areas where visitors can explore deeper sections. These diving zones add another dimension to water activities at this location.
