BeverBad

Beverbad is a family and leisure swimming facility in Ostbevern, in North Rhine-Westphalia. It first opened in 1975 as an indoor pool and now combines indoor and outdoor bathing, with a total water surface of about 600 square metres. It is run by the municipally owned Bäder- und Beteiligungsgesellschaft Ostbevern mbH, in which the municipality holds a 100% stake.

The indoor section has a 25-metre sports pool lit by underwater floodlights in the evening, with massage jets and a water temperature of 27 °C. The outdoor pool is kept at around 26 °C even in cool weather. The outdoor area offers a diving tower carrying one- and three-metre boards and a five-metre platform. A parent-and-child area was added in autumn 1997 and includes a warmer non-swimmer pool, a bathing cove and a toddler pool. The outdoor grounds also have a playground, a table-tennis table and a beach-volleyball court.

A mobile pool lift, provided by the VIBO e.V. association, lets visitors with limited mobility enter and leave the pools independently in both the indoor and outdoor sections. The pool runs swimming courses and aquafitness sessions. Although the name refers to the local Bever river, the river itself is not part of the pool.
