“The Bostalsee in the northern Saarland is the largest leisure lake in southwest Germany. It sits on a plateau between gentle hills, which gives the wind a clear run – southerly to westerly directions come through especially steadily. The main spot is in the bay at Gonnesweiler on the northeastern shore, where the schools and rental are based. You rig on the shore and ride on flat, tide-free freshwater. Who is the lake for? Mainly beginner windsurfers, wingfoilers and SUP fans, though the plateau”
