About This Spot
Simonsberg is a inland lake spot located in northern Germany, characterized by relatively flat, protected waters. The lake is bounded by agricultural land to the north and east, with residential and industrial development on the western shore. The water body appears to be a managed recreational lake with varying depths and vegetated margins. The spot offers side-shore conditions with eastern or western winds, depending on approach. With average wind speeds of 9.7 knots and low wind reliability at 26.2%, this location is suitable primarily for beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking consistent, forgiving conditions rather than challenging sessions. The protected nature of the lake minimizes wave exposure but limits performance potential. Water temperature around 10.2°C requires appropriate protection. The choppy water state and shallow areas necessitate awareness of riding space and depth. Best conditions occur during high-wind events when reliability is less critical. This spot suits progression riders and those learning fundamentals in a controlled environment.
