Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

First weekend of June had totally clear skies and above average temperatures so no wonder it was packed with people.
It's a big lake with many activities on it and around it. At the northern end just cross the road and walk to the New Town Hall by the reflecting pond.

Walking or running along Machsee is really relaxing. During summer it is always crowded. Best time is late spring and early autumn.

I enjoyed very much my time spent at Maschsee although weather was not the best for outdoor activities. It is an artificial lake in a walking distance from the city center, suitable for all possible free time activities. It was built in 30th last century and one can identify sign of it. Especially the colummn with Olympic torch runner on its top takes a breath away and scare a bit at the other hand knowing in what intention such monuments were built and what followed. Anyway it makes this place not only recreation area but also historical place worth a more research.

It’s close to a famous museum and a great monument in Hannover. Perfect for walking, jogging and riding bike.

A amazing place to relax, be there with family or alone , definitely u will love this place. There is some restaurants are available as well and there is places where u can sit alone from the crowd, it gives u all the options u want, there is jogging track as well. The maschsee fest is also great , which happens in August on the bank of the lake.

A gorgeous man made lake, with restaurants and cafes along the banks. Equally impressive during the day or at night. Pier 51 was exceptional. Great views of the lake, nice food, friendly staff.

Biking around the Maschsee you'll get a very relaxed view on a big German city. It is just half an hour bike tour but it is really lovely

A calm and beautiful lake in hannover especially good for boating in it.
There are too many big fish, beautiful swans, ducks and ... which exist in it.
The lake allocates near to modern art hannover museum.
Anyway this lake is cute and nice in summer and spring rather than in winter.

Was there in August during the Maschsee festival, whci I believe happens a couple of times a year.
The lake itself is beautiful and the surrounding park(s) make it a very relaxing green getaway, and within walking distance from the center.
There were a lot of stands with all sorts of food and plenty of music playing, I don't know if this was beacuse of the festival or it's always this lively.
