Waldbad Erlau: More than swimming – a summer paradise for the family!

This is in Erlau, where nature and the enjoyment of water go hand in hand Erlau forest pool. It's not just swimming here, it's a year-round experience that goes far beyond the classic outdoor pool visits. Swimming master Mario Zerrenner starts the day early every day to prepare the pool for visitors. His tasks are varied: from checking the technology to taking water samples to cleaning the pool - everything here is polished to a high shine.

The forest pool not only impresses with its family atmosphere, but also with its impressive 587,000 liters of water, which house the central swimming pool. At the beginning of each day, there is still peace and quiet while Zerrenner sets up parasols, prepares loungers and checks the play equipment. He also thinks about maintaining the spacious green areas that enrich the ambience of the pool.

Leisure activities for the whole family

The forest pool is open daily from May to September. The Opening hours are Monday to Friday from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., while on weekends the gates are open for swimming enthusiasts from 10:00 a.m. During the holidays the opening times are even more generous. However, anyone planning a visit should keep in mind that closures due to weather or technical reasons are possible at any time. Information on this is available by telephone at 03681/539909.

The outdoor swimming pool's facilities are impressive. It includes a 25-meter sports pool with four lanes, a separate non-swimmers' pool, a forest stage for events and a snack bar that provides food, drinks and ice cream for your physical well-being. A spacious 8,500 square meter lawn, table tennis tables, a volleyball field and a playground with numerous play equipment make the forest pool a popular excursion destination for families.
