Helene Lake - all beaches

The new operators, possibly from Berlin, have been running the place for a while now. The food and beer on tap are absolutely delicious. However, there seems to be a limited connection between the team and the customers, hopefully it's just a temporary issue.

This place had the potential to be amazing, but unfortunately, the beach is currently closed due to landslides caused by the deteriorating walls of the old coalmine that operated from 1940 to 1959. These landslides have even extended below the water surface in the northeast of the sea. However, despite the closure, there is still plenty of room available. There are also various options for dining and drinking. Additionally, you can find Langos here, which is a delicious Hungarian fried potato bread that I always look forward to enjoying at festivals. Furthermore, there are numerous pinecones scattered on the ground, perfect for tossing around, and you can even spot woodpeckers in the trees. Considering the accessibility to good food and beer, ample space with minimal noise, and the anticipation of the beach reopening in the future, I would give it a 4-star rating.
