About the harbour
Automatically summarised text: Automatically summarisedvia web search · 29 September 2026Giftener See is a former gravel-pit lake near Sarstedt, between Hildesheim and Hannover, now serving as the town's scenic recreation area. The lake has a shoreline of about 3.6 km, and on its northern shore stands the Segel-Club Sarstedt, which runs its clubhouse and boating activities here – the lake is especially popular with sailors and windsurfers.
The area features a viewing platform overlooking the whole lake, along with toilets and shower facilities for visitors. Two grill spots can be used free of charge without prior booking, as long as the area is left clean.
Paths circle the lake, inviting walks or bike rides, and large grassy areas are perfect for relaxing and sunbathing. Designated bathing areas allow for swimming (at your own risk, as there is no lifeguard supervision). Head out to Giftener See to experience the sailing club's lively activity on the water amid pleasant natural surroundings.
