    The approximately 5-6 km long, flat circular route around the entire Aasee is the city's central recreational area and is well frequented at any time of day or year. The route has a pleasant surface and is perfect for runners of all levels. During the loop, you always have a beautiful view of the water, the sailing boats and the parks surrounding the lake. You run past cafés, meadows and some well-known sculptures from the "Skulptur Projekte".

    Due to its popularity, the route is shared with many other joggers, cyclists, walkers and inline skaters.

    Author’s recommendation

    It's best to walk early in the morning or in the evening - then there are fewer people out and about!

    Public transport

    Public-transport-friendly

    The Aasee is very easy to reach by bus from all directions. Many lines stop in the immediate vicinity of the lake.

    Parking

    There are several large parking lots around the lake (e.g. at the Mühlenhof), but these fill up quickly, especially at weekends, and some are subject to a charge.
