The Ratzersdorfer See ("See" means lake) is a small, but lovely little lake in the north of the city. We call it our "sea", because in summer there is a lot of beach activity there. Most inhabitants like to go there for swimming or sports activities like Beach-Volleyball, Beach-Soccer, Soccer, Mini-Golf, or just having a nice walk. It's a perfect place for meeting friends and refresh on a hot summer day. You don't pay any entrance fee, just 2 EUR per car for parking in the huge parking lot.
In winter when the temperatures are below zero for a week or so, the water freezes quite thick (about 14 - 20 cm thick) and it's perfect for iceskating or playing icehockey. Many inhabitants go there on nice winter weekends to spend their time on the ice.
Equipment: You don't have to bring food or drinks with you, because in summer there are stands that sell everything you desire. There are also two restaurants on both ends of the lake that are opend the whole year long.
