The OLBA-SEE is about 1200 meters long, about 700 meters wide and about 30 meters deep. The lake is a former lignite mining site where a fire broke out on October 3rd, 1927. Since there was no way to extinguish the fire, the tunnels were flooded to extinguish the fire.
This is how the OLBA-SEE came about - the name derives from the OberLausitzer Braunkohlen-Aktiengesellschaft.

August 18, 2024,Olbasee – Umrundung

After 41 years we camped at Lake Olbase again...Back then with a tent, today with a Qek from the GDR era. Before we got back into our daily routine, we walked around the lake once and learned a bit about how the lake was formed.

A nice little round that you can add to another hike. There are many vacationers there in summer. In winter it is very quiet and idyllic.

These natural colors, the entertainment of the animals and still a pleasant silence...it doesn't need any more explanations😊.
