Bernsteinsee Velten: Closed for six weeks – opening from November!
On November 1st, 2025 there will be news from Velten: The popular Bernsteinsee will remain inaccessible for six weeks. This closure was announced in a press release from the Velten city administration and began on Tuesday, September 16th. The reason for this is the dismantling of the natural pool, which is why the area is currently closed to walkers and bathers.
However, there are also bright spots: from November 1st, the lake area will be open to the public again, but only until the evening hours. However, swimming in Amber Lake remains expressly prohibited during this time. For everyone who is looking forward to the coming swimming season, May 15, 2026 is the crucial date, because then the official swimming season with lifeguards will be in full swing again.
Current accessibility and diversions
Access to Lake Bernstein is currently only possible by car from the Velten side. In addition, state road 20 between the Borgsdorf exit and the A10 bridge is closed until October 30th. So anyone planning to visit Lake Bernstein should be prepared and take the diversions into account in advance.
The changes around Amber Lake are no coincidence. Rather, it is part of a larger plan to improve the region. These measures could increase interest in the area in the long term and ensure that the Bernsteinsee becomes a meeting place for Velten residents and visitors not only in summer, but all year round.
