Zuidlaardermeer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The lake northwards of the village of Zuidlaren and southwards of the city of Hoogezand-Sappemeer is called Zuidlaardermeer (Dutch for: Lake of Zuidlaren). Zuidlaren and Hoogezand-Sappemeer are both located in the Netherlands, just like the Zuidlaardermeer itself. The lake is largely situated in the province of Groningen and for a quarter in the province of Drenthe.
The lake is shallow (about 3 ft deep), but some parts are deeper, like the fairway. The lake is popular by tourists, but in particular by yachtsmen. Many sailboats are moored in the lake, because the Zuidlaardermeer is one of the few suitable lakes for sailing in the outline.
Large parts of the lake and nearby polders are conducted by the Groninger Landschap foundation.
