Hiking

The reservoir Witznitz is a former opencast mine of the Witznitz I open pit northwest of Borna and south of Leipzig in Saxony, which was converted in 1950 to 1954 to a flood retention basin. The memory is normally only partially filled. At high tide, water from the Eula and the Wyhra can be channeled into the reservoir. 1995 to 1997, the dam was repaired.

Hiking

scenic hike, which always offers a change of nature, who knows mushrooms, can also find many at this time of the year (no chestnuts, rather mixed mushrooms), solid shoes should be worn
