LIBLARER SEE, GERMANY

In the region of Germany called North Rhine-Westphalia is an area called the Rhineland Nature Park.

A quick dip in the Liblarer See to cool off.

This area was mined extensively for coal and as a result of the coal mining many lakes have been formed.  It is not as ugly as it might seem due to a rigorous reforestation program implemented since the 1920s.

A restful moment on the banks of the Liblarer See

The Liblarer See is one such lake and is a beautiful spot to visit and camp.  Dogs are absolutely welcome to camp and swim !
