With an area of about 0.16 hectares (0.40 acres), it is Munich's smallest bathing lake. The approximate extent in the north-south direction is 50 metres (160 ft), and in the east-west direction 80 metres (260 ft). It was built together with the Athletes village for the Olympic Games in 1972 and is located between Nadistraße and Connollystraße. The Nadisee, named after the road, which also referees to the Italian Athlete Nedo Nadi, is only knee deep and the water level does not go over an adults head at any point making it suitable for wading by children and families in summer and for ice skating in winter. Occasionally festivals take place at the lake. When the water is drained for cleaning, the empty concrete tub is used by mountain bikers and, of course, by skateboarders.[1]
